This converter allows you to convert gigawatts [GW] to nanowatts [nW] or nanowatts [nW] to gigawatts [GW]. Calculations are performed in both directions. The calculation result and the entered value are displayed with up to 20 decimal places for maximum accuracy.

1 gigawatt [GW] = 1018 nanowatts [nW]1 nanowatt [nW] = 10-18 gigawatts [GW]

Convert gigawatts to nanowatts

There are two simple ways to convert gigawatts [GW] to nanowatts [nW]. In the first calculation method, the value in gigawatts [GW] is divided by 10-18. The second method multiplies the value in gigawatts [GW] by 1018.

  • Nanowatts [nW] = gigawatts [GW] ÷ 10-18
  • Nanowatts [nW] = gigawatts [GW] * 1018

Convert nanowatts to gigawatts

Converting nanowatts [nW] to gigawatts [GW] is easy and can be done in two ways. The first method involves multiplication, whereby the value in nanowatts [nW] is multiplied by 10-18. The second variant is a division. Here, the value in nanowatts [nW] is divided by 1018.

  • Gigawatts [GW] = nanowatts [nW] * 10-18
  • Gigawatts [GW] = nanowatts [nW] ÷ 1018
