Planck energy - Definition and Overview

The Planck energy is the natural unit of energy, denoted by EP.

EP = c2(c <math>\hbar<math>/ G)1/21019 GeV, 543 kWh or 1.956 × 109 J

where:

c is the speed of light in a vacuum

<math>\hbar<math> is Dirac's constant

G is the gravitational constant

The Planck energy is also the amount of energy contained in the Planck mass of about a small flea, not counting the kinetic and potential energies. Planck energy is approx= 10 million million million GeV (1 with nineteen zeros following it). A more accurate measurement is provided above.
