1 MWh = 3,600 MJ

Show the working

1 MWh = 3600 MJ
1 × 3600 = 3600 MJ

How to convert megawatt-hours to megajoules

1 MWh = 3,600 MJ, so multiply by 3,600 to go from megawatt-hours to megajoules. Going the other way, 1 MJ = 0.000277777777778 MWh.

MJ = MWh × 3,600
MWh = MJ × 0.000277777777778

Worked example:

1 MWh = 3600 MJ
5 × 3600 = 18000 MJ
