Understanding Energy Output: What 1 MW of Power Really Means
Turning 1 MW into units is easy with the right formula. Basically, 1 MW means 1,000 kW. A unit, or a kilowatt-hour, means using 1 kW for an hour. So, you multiply the megawatts by 1,000 to get kWh. This way, 1 MW equals 1,000 kWh in one hour, showing how much energy is used or made.
