How the formula works
Both decawatt and terawatt measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in decawatts by 1.000000e-11 to get terawatts. To reverse the conversion, multiply a terawatt value by 1.000000e+11 to get back to decawatts.
Frequently asked questions
What is Decawatt (daW)?
A Decawatt (daW) equals 10 watt(s), a scaled unit of electrical power used for deca-scale electrical work.
What is Terawatt (TW)?
A Terawatt (TW) equals 1e+12 watt(s), a scaled unit of electrical power used for tera-scale electrical work.
How do I convert decawatts to terawatts?
Multiply the decawatt value by 1.000000e-11 to get the equivalent in terawatts. For example, 5 daW × 1.000000e-11 = 5.000000e-11 TW.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units use fixed, defined scale factors, so the factor 1.000000e-11 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert terawatts back to decawatts?
Yes. Divide the terawatt value by 1.000000e-11, or multiply it by 1.000000e+11, to get decawatts.
