How to Convert Amp-Hours to Watt-Hours

Amp-hours (Ah) and watt-hours (Wh) are units that are often used to measure battery capacity.

The ampere-hour capacity of a battery, expressed as Ah or A·h, describes the duration for which a battery can supply one ampere of current and the maximum amount of current it can supply for one hour.

The watt-hour capacity of a battery, expressed as Wh or W·h, is a measure of the amount of energy being supplied to the load.

To convert amp-hours to watt-hours, you can use the Ohm’s Law formula.

Ah to Wh Conversion Formula

To convert from electric charge to energy using Ohm’s Law, use the following formula:

E(Wh) = Q(Ah) × V(V)

Thus, the energy E in watt-hours is equal to the charge Q in amp-hours times the voltage V. This is essentially the same formula used to convert amps to watts.

Ah to Wh conversion formula stating that the energy in watt-hours is equal to the charge in amp-hours times the voltage

By reversing this formula, you can also convert Wh to Ah.

For example, let’s convert 300 Ah charge at 12 V to Wh.

E(Wh) = 300 Ah × 12 V
E(Wh) = 3,600 Wh

So, a 300 amp-hour charge at 12 volts is equal to 3,600 watt-hours (3.6 kWh) of energy.
