megawatt hour to gigajoules Converter

Formula:

The formula to convert energy from megawatt-hour to gigajoules is:

Energy_(gigajoules) = Energy_{(megawatt-hour)} × 3.6

Problem at hand:

We need to convert given energy of 1 megawatt-hour to gigajoules.

Given:

The given energy value is

Energy_{(Megawatt-hour)} = 1

Substitution:

Substitute Energy_{(megawatt-hour)} = 1 in the conversion formula.

Energy_(gigajoules) = Energy_{(megawatt-hour)} × 3.6

Energy_(gigajoules) = 1 × 3.6

Simplification:

Solving the right-hand side value.

Energy_(Gigajoules) = 3.6

Conclusion:

Therefore, given energy of 1 megawatt-hour is equal to 3.6 gigajoules.
