Convert dekawatt to exawatt
Please provide values below to convert dekawatt [daW] to exawatt [EW], or Convert exawatt to dekawatt.
1 daW = 1.0000e-17 EW. To convert dekawatt to exawatt, multiply the value by 1.0000e-17; to go the other way, divide by it (1 EW = 1.0000e+17 daW). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 daW = 1.0000e-17 EW
- 1 EW = 1.0000e+17 daW
- 10 daW = 1.0000e-16 EW
- 100 daW = 1.0000e-15 EW
How to Convert Dekawatt to Exawatt
1 daW = 1e-17 EW
Example: convert 15 daW to EW:
15 daW = 15 × 1e-17 EW = 1.5e-16 EW

Dekawatt
A dekawatt (daW) is a unit of power equal to 10 watts.
History/Origin
The dekawatt was introduced as part of the metric system's prefixes for larger units of power, primarily used in scientific and engineering contexts, but it is not widely adopted in everyday use.
Current Use
The dekawatt is rarely used in modern practice; power measurements are typically expressed in watts or kilowatts. It may appear in specialized technical fields or historical references.
Exawatt
An exawatt (EW) is a unit of power equal to 10^18 watts.
History/Origin
The exawatt is part of the SI prefix system, introduced to represent extremely large power quantities, especially in theoretical physics and astrophysics, as the need to express vast energy outputs grew.
Current Use
Exawatts are primarily used in scientific contexts to describe the power output of large-scale phenomena such as stars and cosmic events; they are rarely used in everyday measurements.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 dekawatt in exawatt?
1 dekawatt (daW) = 1.0000e-17 exawatt (EW).
How do you convert dekawatt to exawatt?
Multiply the dekawatt value by 1.0000e-17. For example, 25 daW × 1.0000e-17 = 2.5000e-16 EW.
What is 10 dekawatt in exawatt?
10 daW = 1.0000e-16 EW.
Which unit is larger, the dekawatt or the exawatt?
The exawatt is the larger unit: 1 daW equals only 1.0000e-17 EW.
