Understanding Gigawatt and BTU per Minute
Gigawatt (GW)
The gigawatt is a unit of power in the SI system, used for metric measurements.
• 1 gigawatt = 1,000,000,000 watts
• Used for large power stations and national grids
• Nuclear power plants typically produce 1-2 GW
• Major cities require multiple GW of power
BTU per Minute (BTU/min)
The btu per minute is a unit of power in the Imperial system, used for thermal measurements.
• Used for commercial HVAC equipment
• Common for larger air handlers
• Used in industrial process heating
• Standard for some boiler specifications
