In the case of DC, and in AC when current and voltage are in phase, a volt-ampere is the same as a watt (and therefore, a kilo-volt-ampere is the same as a kW). In the case of AC, when current and voltage are NOT in phase, power = voltage x current x power factor; the power factor is the cosine of the angle between current and voltage, and it is always less than or equal to one. In such a case, a kVA would be less than a kW.
