How to use it

  • Type the value in gigavolt — the result updates as you type.
  • Use Swap to flip the direction, or change either dropdown to convert between any two units.
  • Click the result to copy it. The URL updates too, so you can bookmark or share the exact conversion.

Examples

1 GV1000000000 V
5 GV5000000000 V
10 GV10000000000 V
100 GV100000000000 V

One gigavolt equals 1.0000e+9 volts (V). To convert gigavolts to volts, multiply by 1.0000e+9; to go back the other way, multiply by 1.0000e-9 instead.

The converter above does it as you type and shows the working underneath, so you can check the arithmetic rather than take the number on trust.

What gigavolts and volts actually measure

Gigavolt (GV) — A gigavolt is a billion volts. Rare outside atmospheric physics and theoretical work.

Volt (V) — The volt is the SI unit of potential difference — one joule per coulomb. Batteries, mains supply and virtually all electronics.

How to convert gigavolts to volts by hand

Multiply the number of gigavolts by 1.0000e+9.

For example, 25 GV × 1.0000e+9 = 2.5000e+10 V.

Going the other way, divide by 1.0000e+9 — or multiply by 1.0000e-9, which is the same thing and easier to do in your head.

Everything runs in your browser
