The resistance is simply the value of resistances of all electrical equipment connected in Parallel by all consumers in a big city.The answer is amazingly accurate, if we have the average power consumption (Megawatts-MW) figure from the power company at any time of the day.Suppose a big city is consuming 100-MW at a given time. Assuming we use 100 volts AC at consumer homes, then at any given moment the instantaneous resistance (R in ohms) of the city is simply given by the formula:Power(watts) = (Volts x Volts) / Resistance (R in ohms)..........or,P=V2/ R, therefore,R = V2/P (ohms)......... then,If:V=100 volts (ac)P= 100,000,000 wattsThen:R = 100 x 100 / 100,000,000 = 0.0001 (ohms)(make sure to use only watts, volts and ohms in the formula above).Good Luck !The resistance is simply the value of resistances of all electrical equipment connected in Parallel by all consumers in a big city.The answer is amazingly accurate, if we have the average power consumption (Megawatts-MW) figure from the power company at any time of the day.Suppose a big city is consuming 100-MW at a given time.

A single 1.8 mega watt turbine, in one year, can produce 5.0 million kilowatts of electricity and supply enough power to generate for five hundred homes. 20 1.8 mega watt turbines, in one year can produce 2 billion kilowatts of electricity and supply enough power to generate 10,000 homes. 20 1.8 mega watt turbines, over twenty years, can produce 100 billion kilowatts of CLEAN electricity and supply enough power to generate 10,000 homes.
Power dissipated in a resistance = E2/R = (100)2/100 = 100 watts.
Your question shows the importance of using the correct symbols, because your symbols are incorrect and, therefore, your question is confusing.So, are you asking how many milliwatts (mW) there are in a kilowatt (kW), or are you asking how many megawatts (MW) there are in a kilowatt(kW)?Notice that the symbol for a watt is an upper-case W. The symbol for a milli is a lower-case m, and the symbol for a mega is an upper-case M.If the former, then there are one-thousand milliwatts in a watt, and there are one-thousand watts in a kilowatt, so there must be one-million milliwatts in a kilowatt.If the latter, then there are one-thousand kilowatts in a megawatt, so a megawatt must be one-thousandth of a megawatt in a kilowatt.
Original Answer: we culd not rate power that depends on loads we r using in our houses. Updated Answer: The vast majority of homes in the U.S. have 100-amp or 200-amp service at 240 volts, which is 24 kilowatts to 48 KW of load. 80% of that is 19.2 KW and 38.4 KW for a properly rated home. However, most homes use far less than that throughout the day and only approach those values during peak load times such as doing laundry while running the air conditioning, doing the dishes, vacuuming, watching TV in each room, using the electric stove, and having all of the lights turned on at the same time; generally not a situation that most home owners will face.
In 2012 the annual global solar energy production topped 100 000 Megawatts. That is 274 Megawatts a day. At peak power that is the equivalent of 100 large nuclear power plants.
typical power plant generators produce from 50KVAC to 150KVAC regardless if they are hydro, coal, natural gas, etc.
The time it takes to produce 500 megawatts of electricity depends on the power generation capacity of the plant. If the plant has a capacity of 100 megawatts, it would take 5 days to produce 500 megawatts.
A large coal-fired power plant typically produces around 500-1000 megawatts of electricity per hour, depending on its size and efficiency.
There is no direct conversion between horsepower (HP) and megawatts (MW) as they are units for measuring different types of power. However, 100 HP is approximately equal to 0.0746 MW.
The two megawatt wind turbines envisaged would be similar in size to those on Burgar Hill, Evie.
100 buildings and homes were ruined
The average city consumes around 100-600 megawatts of electricity, depending on its size, population, and level of industrial activity. The energy demand can vary greatly based on factors such as climate, infrastructure, and economic activities.
Engineering notation is similar to scientific notation, with the constraint that the power of ten must be a multiple of 3 (or -3) or zero. Example: 1. x 102 = 100. x 100 The advantage of engineering notation, is that moving between different metric prefixes (such as kilo-, mega-, giga-, milli-, micro-, nano-) is easier, because they change by a factor of 103. So in the example above with 1. x 102, if the units were megawatts, and you wanted to see how many kilowatts that was, it is easier with Engineering Notation than scientific. 100. x 100 megawatts = 100. x 103 kilowatts

The Hoover Dam produces approximately 2 gigawatts when running fully, so around 700,000 homes.
