500 kilowatt-hours in megajoule

500 kilowatt-hours equals 1800 megajoule as a pure energy equivalence on NiftyRecipe.

Kilowatt-hours measure delivered electrical energy. Expressing them as kcal, kJ, MJ or BTU is physics only-not a forecast of what a household pays. The factor is 1 kilowatt-hour = 3.6 megajoule, so this amount is 1800 megajoule. Reverse: 1 megajoule ≈ 0.277778 kilowatt-hour. Note that 1 kWh is exactly 3.6 MJ.
