1 cubic meter = 35.315 cubic feet. 1 cubic foot of natural gas contains 1,000 BTU energy.
1 cubic foot of propane gas contains 2,720 BTU energy.
1 BTU = .2929 Watts


To convert a cubic meter of Natural Gas to a kilowatt, use this formula


kW-hours = cu meters x 35,315 x .2929 x efficiency% x run-time%


And to convert a cubic meter of Propane gas to a kilowatt, use this formula


kW-hours = cu meters x 95,351 x .2929 x efficiency% x run-time%


The efficiency is the AFUE efficiency of the furnace (typically, 75% for an old-fashioned conventional furnace, about 80% for a mid-efficiency, and around 92-97% for a high-efficiency furnace.
If the furnace is running 60 minutes out of the hour, then the run-time% is 100%. If the furnace runs less, you must reduce the kW figure by the same amount. For example, if the furnace runs for 30 minutes out of the hour, enter 50% as your run-time%.
