You can't directly convert between a measure of time and a measure of energy. MWh is not a "special type of hour", it is the product of megawatts and hours.
The general relationship is: energy = power x time.

1 MWh is equal to 1,000 kWh.
One megawatt is equal to 1,000 kilowatts (kW), so one megawatt-hour (MWh) is equivalent to 1,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh).
To convert megawatts (MW) to kilowatt-hours (kWh), multiply by the number of hours: 1600 MW * 1 hour = 1600 MWh = 1,600,000 kWh.
To convert electricity price from per kWh (kilowatt-hour) to mWh (megawatt-hour), you need to multiply the price per kWh by 1,000. This is because there are 1,000 kWh in 1 mWh. For example, if the price is $0.10 per kWh, the price per mWh would be $100.
To calculate the kWh produced by a 12 MW power plant in 24 hours, you would multiply the power output in MW by the number of hours and convert it to kWh. In this case, 12 MW x 24 hours = 288 MWh, which is equivalent to 288,000 kWh.
