Worked example

Find the energy when Power = 1000 W, Time = 3600 s.

Using E = P t: Energy = 3.6 × 10⁶ J.

Frequently asked questions

What is the formula for Energy from power and time?

E = P t.

What do the letters stand for, and what units are used?

Energy in J, Power in W, Time in s.

How do you calculate energy?

Put the values into E = P t. For example, with Power = 1000 W, Time = 3600 s, energy = 3.6 × 10⁶ J.

Can I solve for a different value?

Yes. In the calculator above, pick the circle next to any value (energy, power, time) and fill in the others: it rearranges the formula for you.
