Kilocalories to megawatt-hour Conversion
1 kilocalories (kcal) is equal to 0.000001162222222 megawatt-hour (MW⋅hr).
1 kcal = 0.000001162222222 MW⋅hr
or
1 MW⋅hr = 860420.6501 kcal
Formula
To convert a energy from kilocalories (kcal) to megawatt-hour (MW⋅hr), divide the energy in kilocalories by 860420.6501
e(MW⋅hr) = e(kcal) / 860420.6501
Examples:
Convert 50 kilocalories to megawatt-hour:
e(MW⋅hr) = 50kcal / 860420.6501 = 0.00005811111111 MW⋅hr
