Gigawatt-hour to kilojoules Conversion

1 gigawatt-hour (GW⋅hr) is equal to 3600000000 kilojoules (kJ).

1 GW⋅hr = 3600000000 kJ

1 kJ = 0.0000000002777777778 GW⋅hr

Formula

To convert a energy from gigawatt-hour (GW⋅hr) to kilojoules (kJ), multiply the energy in gigawatt-hour by 3600000000

e_(kJ) = e_(GW⋅hr) × 3600000000

Examples:

Convert 1000 gigawatt-hour to kilojoules:

e_(kJ) = 1000GW⋅hr × 3600000000 = 3600000000000 kJ

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert gigawatt-hour to kilojoules?

Multiply the value in gigawatt-hour by 3600000000 to get the result in kilojoules. For example, 5 GW⋅hr × 3600000000 = 1.8e10 kJ.

How many kilojoules are in 1 gigawatt-hour?

1 gigawatt-hour (GW⋅hr) is equal to 3.6e9 kilojoules (kJ).

How do I convert kilojoules back to gigawatt-hour?

Use the inverse operation: divide the value in kilojoules by 3600000000 to get the result in gigawatt-hour.

How accurate is the gigawatt-hour to kilojoules conversion?

The converter multiplies by the conversion factor 3600000000 and rounds the result to 9 decimal places by default. You can increase or reduce the precision with the digits option on this page.
