About Megawatt-hour and Therm

The megawatt-hour is 1,000 kilowatt-hours. Power plants, grid storage, and wholesale electricity markets trade in megawatt-hours. The therm is 100,000 BTU, about 105.5 megajoules. US natural gas utilities bill household consumption in therms. One Megawatt-hour equals 34.12141633 Therm (1 MWh = 34.12141633 therm). Megawatt-hour to Therm conversion comes up most often in wholesale electricity markets and in grid-scale storage capacity, typically when figures need restating for US natural gas billing.

Precision and Rounding: Energy factors mix exact definitions (1 kWh = 3,600,000 J; 1 cal = 4.184 J thermochemical) with measured conventions (1 BTU ≈ 1,055.056 J). Nutrition and utility bills round to whole units; engineering heat calculations should keep the full factor until the final step.

Conversion factors per NIST Special Publication 811 and the BIPM SI Brochure (9th edition) (reference).
