Convert kilojoule to therm (EC)
Please provide values below to convert kilojoule [kJ] to therm (EC) [thm (EC)], or Convert therm (EC) to kilojoule.
1 kJ = 9.47816987913e-06 thm (EC). To convert kilojoule to therm (EC), multiply the value by 9.47816987913e-06; to go the other way, divide by it (1 thm (EC) = 105505.6 kJ). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Kilojoule
A kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000 joules, used to quantify energy transfer or work done.
History/Origin
The kilojoule was introduced as part of the International System of Units (SI) to provide a convenient scale for measuring energy, especially in fields like nutrition and physics, replacing the joule for larger quantities.
Current Use
The kilojoule is widely used in nutrition to express food energy content, in physics and engineering to measure energy transfer, and in various scientific and industrial applications within the 'Energy' converter category.
Therm (Ec)
The therm (EC) is a unit of energy used primarily in the measurement of natural gas and heating energy, equivalent to 100,000 British thermal units (BTUs).
History/Origin
The therm originated in the early 19th century as a practical unit for measuring large quantities of heat energy, especially in the gas industry, and has been standardized in various regions for energy billing and calculations.
Current Use
Today, the therm (EC) is used mainly in the natural gas industry and energy sectors to quantify heat energy consumption, although it has largely been supplemented or replaced by SI units like joules and kilowatt-hours in many regions.
