Grams per kilowatt-hour to grams per megajoule

Type a value in g/kWh to get it in g/MJ instantly.

55.56g/MJ

That's 1.03× as thirsty as a truck diesel, while a car diesel is 1.15× thirstier. That is a thermal efficiency of about 42.06%.

What it means

How thirsty is that engine?

Efficiency figures assume diesel at 42.8 MJ/kg. Gasoline holds about 44 MJ/kg and hydrogen 120, so the same g/kWh means different efficiencies for each.

The math

How to convert g/kWh to g/MJ

To convert grams per kilowatt-hour to grams per megajoule, multiply by 0.277778.

Example: 200 g/kWh × 0.277778 = 55.5556 g/MJ.

In the other direction, 1 g/MJ = 3.6 g/kWh.
