  1. 1 MWh = 3412141.63313 Btu
  2. 1 × 3412141.63313 = 3412141.63313 Btu

How to convert megawatt-hours to british thermal units

1 MWh = 3,412,141.63313 Btu, so multiply by 3,412,141.63313 to go from megawatt-hours to British thermal units (IT). Going the other way, 1 Btu = 2.93071070172 × 10⁻⁷ MWh.

Btu = MWh × 3,412,141.63313
MWh = Btu × 2.93071070172

Worked example:

1 MWh = 3412141.63313 Btu
5 × 3412141.63313 = 17060708.1656 Btu
