What does 1 hectojoule/second represent in watts?

One hectojoule per second equals 100 watts, representing the rate of energy transfer per second.

Why convert power units from hectojoule/second to megawatt?

Converting helps scale small or medium power values to very large outputs for industrial or utility applications.

Can I use hectojoule/second for large scale power measurements?

Hectojoule/second is more suited for smaller scale power; megawatt units are typical for large scale outputs.
