Megawatts to Horsepower

Megawatts to Horsepower Converter

Convert power from megawatts (MW) to different types of horsepower.

How to Convert Megawatts to Horsepower

To convert megawatts (MW) to horsepower (hp), use the following conversion

Megawatts to Mechanical Horsepower

One mechanical horsepower is equal to 0.000745699872 megawatts:

1 hp(I) = 0.000745699872 MW

Thus, the power conversion of megawatts to horsepower is given by:

P(hp) = P(MW) / 0.000745699872

Example

Convert 1 MW to mechanical horsepower:

P(hp) = 1 MW / 0.000745699872 = 1341.022 hp

Megawatts to Electrical Horsepower

One electrical horsepower is equal to 0.000746 megawatts:

1 hp(E) = 0.000746 MW

Thus, the power conversion of megawatts to horsepower is given by:

P(hp) = P(MW) / 0.000746

Example

Convert 1 MW to electrical horsepower:

P(hp) = 1 MW / 0.000746 = 1340.482 hp

Megawatts to Metric Horsepower

One metric horsepower is equal to 0.00073549875 megawatts:

1 hp(M) = 0.00073549875 MW

Thus, the power conversion of megawatts to horsepower is given by:

P(hp) = P(MW) / 0.00073549875

Example

Convert 1 MW to metric horsepower:

P(hp) = 1 MW / 0.00073549875 = 1360.419 hp
