Convert Kilojoules to Kilowatt-hours
Enter the energy in kilojoules below to get the value converted to kilowatt-hours.
How to Convert Kilojoules to Kilowatt-hours
To convert a kilojoule measurement to a kilowatt-hour measurement, multiply the energy by the conversion ratio. One kilojoule is equal to 0.000278 kilowatt-hours, so use this simple formula to convert:
The energy in kilowatt-hours is equal to the kilojoules multiplied by 0.000278.
Kilojoules and kilowatt-hours are both units used to measure energy. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
Kilojoules
One kilojoule is equal to 1,000 joules, which are the energy equal to the force on an object of one newton at a distance of one meter.
The kilojoule is a multiple of the joule, which is the SI derived unit for energy. In the metric system, "kilo" is the prefix for 103. Kilojoules can be abbreviated as kJ, for example 1 kilojoule can be written as 1 kJ.
Kilowatt-hours
A kilowatt-hour is a measure of electrical energy equal to one kilowatt, or 1,000 watts, of power over a one hour period. Kilowatt-hours are a measure of electrical work performed over a period of time, and are often used as a way of measuring energy usage by electric companies.
Kilowatt-hours can be abbreviated as kWh, for example 1 kilowatt-hour can be written as 1 kWh.
