Definitions of Units

Kilowatt-Hour (kWh)

The kilowatt-hour is a unit of energy equal to one kilowatt (1 kW) of power sustained for one hour. It is commonly used to measure electricity consumption in households and businesses. 1 kWh = 1000 watt-hours (Wh). In the SI system, it is a derived unit of energy.

Hour (h)

An hour is a unit of time equal to 60 minutes or 3600 seconds. It is used universally to express durations, including time periods over which electrical energy is consumed or delivered. It is not SI but is accepted for use with it.

Kilowatt (kW)

A kilowatt is a unit of power equal to 1000 watts. It represents the rate at which energy is used or generated. In this calculator, it is derived by dividing energy (kWh) by time (h). It is an SI-compliant unit widely used in electricity and mechanical systems.
