On the Celsius and Kelvin scales, the degrees are the same size, but the Kelvin scale has its zero point at the lowest possible temperature, absolute zero. For Celsius, the zero point is the freezing point of water.

So temperatures expressed on the Kelvin scale are 273.15 degrees (kelvins) higher in number than the same temperature expressed in Celsius.

And a temperature of 1°C would be the same as a temperature of 274.15 K (you do not use degree marks with Kelvin).
