How to Convert Kilowatt-Hours to Kilowatts

Kilowatt-hours, expressed kWh or kW·h, are a measure of electrical energy consumption equivalent to one kilowatt of power used for one hour. The electric company uses this measurement to calculate how much to bill customers, for example.

Kilowatts, abbreviated kW, are a measure of electric power.

kWh to kW Conversion Formula

To convert energy in kWh to power in kW, use the formula below.

P(kW) = E(kWh) / T(hrs)

So, the power P in kilowatts is equal to the energy E in kilowatt-hours divided by the time period T measured in hours.

kWh to kW formula stating that the power in kilowatts is equal to the energy in kilowatt-hours divided by the time in hours

For example, let’s convert 48 kWh of energy consumption over a 24-hour time period to kW.

kW = 48 kWh ÷ 24 hours
kW = 2 kW
