Megawatt: The megawatt (MW) is a unit of power equal to one million watts. Megawatts are often used to measure the output of power plants or the amount of electricity required by large facilities. For example, a large wind turbine can produce up to 2 megawatts of power.
Gigawatt: The gigawatt (GW) is a unit of power equal to one billion watts. Gigawatts are used to measure the capacity of very large power plants and the total power consumption of entire countries. For example, the total electrical generating capacity of a large nuclear power plant can be around 1 gigawatt.
