How to Convert Watts to Megawatts?
How Many Watts in a Megawatt?
1 W = 0,000001 MW
1 MW = 1000000 W
Watts to Megawatts Conversion Formula
To calculate the power in megawatts P(MW), divide the power in watts P(W) by one million (1,000,000):
P(MW) = P(W) / 1,000,000
Example
Let’s say you have a power plant that generates electricity with a capacity of 500,000 watts. To convert this value to megawatts, you divide it by 1 million (since there are 1 million watts in a megawatt):
500,000 watts / 1,000,000 = 0.5 megawatts
Therefore, the power plant has a capacity of 0.5 megawatts.
