Rendered to 6 significant figures.

Formula

Formula
Wh/kg = kWh/kg × 1000

Multiply any value in kilowatt-hours per kilogram by 1000 to obtain the value in watt-hours per kilogram.

Worked example

Convert 1 kWh/kg to Wh/kg.

  1. 01Start with 1 kWh/kg.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1 × 1000 = 1000 Wh/kg.
Result1 kWh/kg = 1000 Wh/kg

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from kWh/kg to Wh/kg?
1 kWh/kg equals 1000 Wh/kg. To convert, multiply the value in kilowatt-hours per kilogram by 1000.
How do I convert 1 kWh/kg to Wh/kg?
1 kWh/kg = 1000 Wh/kg. For any value, multiply by 1000.
How do I convert Wh/kg back to kWh/kg?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.001. So 1 Wh/kg = 0.001 kWh/kg.
When would I need to convert kilowatt-hour per kilogram to watt-hour per kilogram?
Specific-energy conversions between kWh/kg and Wh/kg are needed in fuel-property datasheets (HHV/LHV), thermodynamic state calculations, battery energy-density comparisons, and combustion analysis. kJ/kg is the SI standard; BTU/lb is common in US fuel specifications.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
