Explanation

kilowatt-hours and calories are units of energy. They are used in common measurement contexts. Which one you use depends on the unit system or industry. They are defined at different scales, so the factor is not 1: 1 kilowatt-hours = 860420.6500956023 calories, and 1 calories = 0.0000011622 kilowatt-hours. Because one calories represents a smaller amount than one kilowatt-hours, the numeric value gets larger in this direction.
