Megawatt-hour to watt-hour Conversion
1 megawatt-hour (MW⋅hr) is equal to 1000000 watt-hour (W⋅hr).
1 MW⋅hr = 1000000 W⋅hr
or
1 W⋅hr = 0.000001 MW⋅hr
Formula
To convert a energy from megawatt-hour (MW⋅hr) to watt-hour (W⋅hr), multiply the energy in megawatt-hour by 1000000
e(W⋅hr) = e(MW⋅hr) × 1000000
Examples:
Convert 1 megawatt-hour to watt-hour:
e(W⋅hr) = 1MW⋅hr × 1000000 = 1000000 W⋅hr
