What is a gram-force meter?

A gram-force meter (gf·m) is a non-SI unit of work or energy, defined as the work done by a constant force of one gram-force applied over one meter.

What is a megawatt-hour?

The megawatt-hour (MW·h) is a unit of energy representing one megawatt of power sustained for one hour, commonly used in electrical energy reporting.

Why convert from gram-force meter to megawatt-hour?

Conversion allows translation of small mechanical energy units into large electrical energy units for comparison, analysis, and integration of legacy and modern energy data.
