Question: 1 mw produces how many units?
Answer: This equates to 1.1-1.6 million units of electricity a year, per MW (recall that 1 MWh equals 1000 kWh, and a kWh is the unit of electricity). Why does a 1 MW solar power plant not generate 24 MWh of electricity a day? This is because 1 MW is the rated capacity that is applicable only for good sunshine hours.
