Converting from British Thermal Unit per Hour (BTU/h) to Megawatt (MW) | Power

What is British Thermal Unit per Hour (BTU/h)

British Thermal Unit per Hour (BTU/h) is a unit of power commonly used in the United States and UK to measure the rate of energy transfer. It is often used in the heating, cooling, and refrigeration industries to quantify the amount of heat energy needed or removed per hour.

What is Megawatt (MW)

Megawatt (MW) is a unit of power in the International System of Units (SI). It represents one million watts and is commonly used for larger power generation and distribution purposes. Megawatts are used to measure the output of power plants, as well as the power consumption of large industrial facilities.
