To convert kilowatts to gigawatts, multiply by 0.000001.

The calculation uses 1 kW = 0.000001 GW. Results are displayed to at most 10 significant digits. Definitions can be exact while a displayed decimal is rounded. Match the displayed precision to your original measurement.

The formula

value in GW = value in kW × 0.000001
kW
Input unit: kilowatts
GW
Output unit: gigawatts

How to use this calculator

  1. Enter a value in kW.
  2. Multiply by the stored conversion factor.
  3. Read the result in GW; divide by the same factor to convert back.

Worked examples

Worked conversion

1 kW × 0.000001 ≈ 0.000001 GW.

Reverse conversion

0.000001 GW ÷ 0.000001 ≈ 1 kW. Rounding intermediate values can change the last displayed digit.

Frequently asked questions

What factor does this converter use?

It uses 0.000001 GW per kW.

Why can another converter show a slightly different answer?

Check the unit convention first (such as US versus Imperial or decimal versus binary), then compare rounding. Measurement uncertainty is separate from the unit conversion.
