convertimate Energy per volume

Watt-hours per liter to megajoules per liter

Type a value in Wh/L to get it in MJ/L instantly.

0.1296MJ/L

That's 3.3× as energy-dense as natural gas at room pressure, while a lead-acid battery is 2.5× denser. A 50-liter tank of it would hold about 1.8 kWh.

What it means

How much fits in a liter?

Fuels use the higher heating value; batteries are usable electrical energy per liter of cell. Gases are at atmospheric pressure unless stated.

The math

How to convert Wh/L to MJ/L

To convert watt-hours per liter to megajoules per liter, multiply by 0.0036.

Example: 36 Wh/L × 0.0036 = 0.1296 MJ/L.

In the other direction, 1 MJ/L = 277.778 Wh/L.
