1 MW is not a distance it is a measure of power..

1 Megawatt=1million watts

MW can also stand for molecular wight which also is not a distance

Convert GWh to MW?

1 gigawatt = 1000 megawatts 1 MW of electricical Power means different GWh in a year according to how long the power can be used through the year. 1 year = 8760 hours. So at 100%, a power plant of 1 MW will produce 8760 MWh, ie 8,76 GWh For instance, with a nuclear power plant that usually runs 80% of the time you have: 1 MW -> 7 GWh in a year You have approximately the same ratio (a bit more) with a thermal power plant (fossil fuel) With wind power plant, they usually run 23% of the time in windy areas (due to meterological conditions). You then have in such a case : 1 MW -> 2 GWh in a year For solar power it is less and up to areas. In California, 1 MW -> 1,4 GWh in a year In Germany, 1 MW -> 0,6 GWh in a year Electrical power of plants are up to types of plants: Nuclear & Fuel : around 1000 MW (up to power plant size...) 1 Wind turbine : up to 5 MW Solar plant (photovoltaic) : up to 20 MW Solar plant (other, experimental) : up to 500 MW so far


How many kW is a MW?

1 MW is equal to 1000 kW, since "kilo" means 1000 times the base unit.


How much diesel need to burn produce 1 mw electricity?

The amount of diesel needed to produce 1 MW of electricity can vary depending on the efficiency of the diesel generator. On average, it can range from about 0.25 to 0.3 gallons of diesel per hour per MW of electricity produced.


How do you convert db to mw?

To convert from dB (decibels) to mW (milliwatts), you can use the formula: mW = 10^(dB/10). Simply take the dB value and divide it by 10, then raise 10 to that power to get the mW value. For example, if you have 20 dB, the calculation would be mW = 10^(20/10) = 100 mW.


How many kWh will produce 1 MW gas fired power plant?

A 1 MW gas-fired power plant operating at full capacity for one hour would produce 1 MWh (megawatt-hour) of electricity. This is equivalent to 1000 kWh (kilowatt-hours).
