What does one fuel oil equivalent kiloliter represent?

It represents the energy released by burning one kiloliter of a designated reference fuel oil, used as a volumetric energy unit for fuel comparisons.

Why convert fuel oil equivalent to gigawatt-hours?

Converting allows comparing and reporting energy content in large-scale electrical energy units for planning and statistics.

Does this conversion account for fuel efficiency?

No, the conversion only translates energy content and does not consider losses in converting fuel energy to electricity.
