Convert calorie (nutritional) to kilowatt-hour
Please provide values below to convert calorie (nutritional) [Cal] to kilowatt-hour [kW*h], or Convert kilowatt-hour to calorie (nutritional).
1 Cal = 0.001163 kW*h. To convert calorie (nutritional) to kilowatt-hour, multiply the value by 0.001163; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kW*h = 859.845227859 Cal). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 Cal = 0.001163 kW*h
- 1 kW*h = 859.845227859 Cal
- 10 Cal = 0.01163 kW*h

Calorie (Nutritional)
A calorie (Cal) is a unit of energy used to measure the amount of energy provided by food and beverages, specifically representing the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius.
History/Origin
The calorie was first introduced in the 19th century as a unit to quantify energy in nutrition. It has since become a standard measure in dietary and nutritional contexts, although the scientific community often prefers the joule as the SI unit of energy.
Current Use
Calories are widely used in nutrition to quantify the energy content of food and beverages, helping consumers manage dietary intake and energy balance. The term 'Calorie' with a capital 'C' typically refers to kilocalories (kcal), which are equivalent to 1,000 small calories.
Kilowatt-Hour
A kilowatt-hour (kW·h) is a unit of energy equal to the energy transferred or used when a power of one kilowatt is sustained for one hour.
History/Origin
The kilowatt-hour originated in the late 19th century with the development of electrical power systems, becoming a standard unit for measuring electrical energy consumption and billing.
Current Use
It is widely used today in electricity billing, energy consumption monitoring, and in various engineering and scientific applications to quantify electrical energy usage.
