Is MKWH a recognized unit? And even if it is, why wouldn't the conversion factor be 1/1,000,000?

Well, if it was, mega kilo would be 1000 million, or 1000 millionth.

But you'd actually write that MkWh, which raises the question does the OP actually mean mkWh? which would be smaller.

& I assume Tony was aiming at #1, not #2
