Understanding Megawatt and BTU per Hour
Megawatt (MW)
The megawatt is a unit of power in the SI system, used for metric measurements.
• 1 megawatt = 1,000,000 watts
• Used for power plants, large industrial facilities
• Common for wind turbines and solar farms
• Typical small power plant produces 1-10 MW
BTU per Hour (BTU/h)
The btu per hour is a unit of power in the Imperial system, used for thermal measurements.
• Standard for window air conditioners
• Used for space heaters and furnaces
• Common in energy efficiency ratings (SEER)
• Used for fireplace and stove specifications
