Energy units in oil & gas

Natural gas and power markets quote energy in different units. MMBtu (one million British thermal units) dominates North American gas pricing; therms (100,000 BTU) appear on utility bills; kWh and MWh are electricity units; and gigajoules (GJ) are used in Canada and metric markets.

This converter handles all of them so you can compare a gas contract priced in $/MMBtu against a power price in $/MWh on the same energy basis.
