Forum rules
Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page
Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

kW to kWh
by mike.wright2@networkrail. » Thu Jun 24, 2004 6:42 pm
kW (kiloWatts-1000 Watts) are a unit of power, which is the rate of doing work (i.e. energy). kWh (kiloWatt hours) is a common (e.g. electricity bills) but non standard metric unit of energy, so the two are not measures of the same thing. That said, assuming this concerns an energy bill, if you multiply the power (in kW) by the number of hours you will get the energy used in kWh. For example a 3 kW heater running for 2 hours will consume 6 kWh of energy.
In your specific query, you cannot convert 14 kW to kWh, you need to know how many hours, then multiply the 2 together.
