This document compares the energy equivalents of various fuels to 1 kWh of energy. It provides the energy content in kWh per unit of each fuel, the equivalent amount of that fuel needed to produce 1 kWh of energy, and the price per equivalent unit of fuel. Natural gas has the lowest price per kWh equivalent at $1.238/kWh, while petrol has the highest at $10.009/kWh. Lignite coal and wood have the lowest energy contents per unit mass.
