    This document compares the thermal values of various energy sources including natural gas, propane, unleaded gasoline, fuel oil #2, and electricity. It provides the equivalent amounts of each source that equal 1 million Btu, showing for example that 1 million Btu of natural gas equals 1,000 cubic feet but the same thermal value from electricity would require 3.412 kilowatt hours.
