Megawatts to milliwatts Conversion
1 megawatts (MW) is equal to 1000000000 milliwatts (mW).
1 MW = 1000000000 mW
or
1 mW = 0.000000001 MW
Formula
To convert a power from megawatts (MW) to milliwatts (mW), multiply the power in megawatts by 1000000000
p(mW) = p(MW) × 1000000000
Examples:
Convert 1000 megawatts to milliwatts:
p(mW) = 1000MW × 1000000000 = 1000000000000 mW

Frequently asked questions
How do I convert megawatts to milliwatts?
Multiply the value in megawatts by 1000000000 to get the result in milliwatts. For example, 5 MW × 1000000000 = 5e9 mW.
How many milliwatts are in 1 megawatts?
1 megawatts (MW) is equal to 1e9 milliwatts (mW).
How do I convert milliwatts back to megawatts?
Use the inverse operation: divide the value in milliwatts by 1000000000 to get the result in megawatts.
How accurate is the megawatts to milliwatts conversion?
The converter multiplies by the conversion factor 1000000000 and rounds the result to 9 decimal places by default. You can increase or reduce the precision with the digits option on this page.
