Watts to megawatts converter
Megawatts (MW)
1 watt = 0.000001 megawatts
How to convert watts to megawatts
MW = W × 0.000001
Multiply the number of watts by 0.000001 to get megawatts. Going the other way, divide by 0.000001 (or multiply by 1000000).
One watt is exactly defined as 0.000001 megawatts (to 12 significant figures), and one megawatt is 1000000 watts.
Worked examples
- Convert 5 watts: 5 × 0.000001 = 0.000005 0.000005 megawatts.
- Convert 12.5 watts: 12.5 × 0.000001 = 0.0000125 0.0000125 megawatts.
- Convert 250 watts: 250 × 0.000001 = 0.00025 0.00025 megawatts.
