About Megawatts
The megawatt (MW) equals one million watts, used to express the output of power plants, large industrial facilities, and data centers. A typical wind turbine generates 2–3 MW, while a large coal plant may produce 500–1,000 MW. One megawatt can power roughly 800–1,000 homes simultaneously.
💡 A megawatt can power about 750 homes
About BTU/hour
BTU per hour (BTU/h) equals approximately 0.293 watts, the standard rating unit for air conditioners, heaters, and furnaces in North America. A typical window air conditioner rated at 10,000 BTU/h can cool a 400–500 square foot room, making this unit essential for HVAC system sizing. One BTU/h equals about 0.2931 watts.
💡 1 BTU/hour is about the heat from a burning match
