About this conversion
This page converts deciwatts (dW) into kilowatts (kW), two units used to describe power, the rate at which energy is transferred or work is done.
A deciwatt is 0.1 watt units.
A kilowatt is 1000 watt units.
The formula is kW = dW × 0.0001, derived from each unit's fixed relationship to the watt, the SI unit of power.
Because both units are defined by exact numeric relationships to the watt, this conversion is exact rather than approximate.
