It all depends on what method is used to isolate the kilowatt hours of electrical energy.
That dependence is one of the two major bases for the whole discussion of renewable
energy. (Conservation of Natural Resources is the other one.)
Generating the electricity by burning coal, oil, natural gas, wood, or corn ethanol
produces carbon as a waste product, releasing most of it into the air, and consumes
coal, oil, natural gas, wood, corn, and agricultural resources like land, fertilizer, and
fresh water.
Generating the electricity by collecting and converting solar power, wind power,
hydro power, or tide power doesn't produce carbon, and doesn't consume anything.
50 watts is 0.05 kilowatts, so in 24 hours it uses 0.05 x 24 kilowatt-hours, or 1.2 kilowatt-hours of energy.
1 kilowatt hour = 3,600,000 Joules 1 Tetrajoule = 1,000,000 Joules 1 kilowatt hour = 3.6 Tetrajoules
Use the formula: energy = power x time If energy is in watts and time is in hours, power will be in watt-hours. Divide that by 1000 to get kWh. Alternately, you can convert watt to kilowatt before doing the multiplication - in that case, kilowatt x hours = kilowatt-hours.
Watt, kilowatt, or megawatt are units of power (energy/time). A watt is 1 joule/second. A kilowatt is a thousand joules per second. A kilowatt is also 1 kWh/hour (kilowatt-hour / hour). Since you would usually pay per kilowatt-hour, you might be more interested in the number of kilowatt-hours. A megawatt is a million joules per second - or a thousand kWh/hour.
1 kilowatt is equal to 1,000 watts, so a 100 watt bulb uses .1 kilowatt. Technically, your home or business meter base measures kilowatt hours, meaning that it measures both the kilowatts and the amount of time. If you turn on 10 100 watt bulbs for 1 second, that would be a kilowatt, but the amount of power use would be insignificant. So... To calculate the kilowatt hours: .1 kilowatts (from above, knowing the energy use of the bulb) Multiplied by 24 hours in a day Multiplied by 30 days... .1(kilowatts) * 24(hours)* 30(hours in a day) = 72 kilowatt hours
1 kilowatt = 1,000 watts 6 kilowatts = 6,000 watts 6 kilowatt-hours = 6,000 watt-hours
50 watts is 0.05 kilowatts, so in 24 hours it uses 0.05 x 24 kilowatt-hours, or 1.2 kilowatt-hours of energy.
The world is expected to use over 25,000,000,000,000 kilowatt-hours of energy this year.
watts or kilowatts are used to measure power, which is how quickly energy flows, and electrical energy is measured in kilowatt-hours. A kilowatt-hour is also known as a Unit of electrical energy, and it is the amount of energy used when a power of 1 kilowatt flows for 1 hour.
366,000 BTU = 107.264012 kilowatt hours.
30 minutes is 0.5 hours. 1 kilowatt = 1000 watts, so divide both sides by 1000 and you get .001 kilowatts = 1 watt So 8 watts x 30 minutes = .008 kilowatts x 0.5 hours = .004 kilowatt hours.
There is no such thing as a "kilowatt per hour". Kilowatt is a unit of power, not of energy. A unit of energy is kilowatt-hour. That's kilowatt times hours, not "per" hour ("per" implies division, not multiplication). If a generator produces 10 kilowatts, that means it produces 10 kilowatt-hours every hour.
Well, I google the convertion table on calculateme.com and I got1 kilowatt hour = 860 420.65 caloriesSo when you have 3 kilowatt hours you get 2579535.6835769564 calories
1 kilowatt hour = 3,600,000 Joules 1 Tetrajoule = 1,000,000 Joules 1 kilowatt hour = 3.6 Tetrajoules
To calculate the kilowatt hours (kWh) used by a 30 watt light bulb in 8 hours, we first convert the power to kilowatts: 30 watts = 0.03 kilowatts. Then, multiply this by the time in hours: 0.03 kW * 8 hours = 0.24 kWh. So, 0.24 kWh are used to light a 30 watt light bulb in 8 hours.
