    According to e-on it's steps 2 - 4

    For better info you could post this in the gas and elec board.
    1. For imperial meters: Take the volume used, shown with the suffix 'hcf' on the front of your bill and multiply this figure by 2.83 to convert to cubic meters (m³). Follow step 3 onwards.
    2. For metric meters: Take the volume used, shown with the suffix 'm³' on the front of your bill.
    3. Multiply this figure by the conversion factor shown in your charge details, then by the calorific value also shown.
    4. Finally divide this figure by 3.6 to show your usage in kWh.
