1 Megawatt Powers 778 Homes!

A one-megawatt electric plant running continuously at full capacity can power 778 households each year, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. There are 1,000 kilowatts in a megawatt. Solar technology has lower capacity because its power generation is constrained by availability of the sun.
