1 kWh - 860 kilocalories (kcal)
1 kg. Coal/Coke - Gross Calorific Value as per supplier’s (coal company's) latest certificate
1 kg. Charcoal - 6,900 kcal or as per supplier's latest certificate
1 kg. Furnace Oil/RFO/LSHS/NAPTHA - 10,050 kcal (density = 0.9337 kg/litre) or as per supplier’s latest certificate
