A Gigawatt-hour is a unit of energy and its units, GWh, are formed with W for watt and h for hour from SI unit system combined with letter G, metric prefix, for 1,000,000,000 or . Its definition, in the context of electricity, is the energy of one watt power flowing for one hour.
Followings equivalent equations are identical but in different units. Please note that factor is representing Giga prefix in GWh unit.
