What is the Formula to convert Gigawatts to Horsepower (Electric)?
The formula to convert given power from Gigawatts to Horsepower (Electric) is:
Substitute the given value of power in gigawatts, i.e., Power(Gigawatts) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the power in horsepower (electric), i.e., Power(Horsepower (Electric)).
Calculation
Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.
Examples
1
Consider that a large nuclear power plant generates 1.5 gigawatts (GW) of electricity. Convert this power generation from gigawatts to Horsepower (Electric).
Answer:
Given:
The power in gigawatts is:
Power(Gigawatts) = 1.5
Formula:
The formula to convert power from gigawatts to horsepower (electric) is:
Substitute given weight Power(Gigawatts) = 1.5 in the above formula.
Power(Horsepower (Electric)) = (1.5 × 1e9)/746
Power(Horsepower (Electric)) = 2010723.8606
Final Answer:
Therefore, 1.5 GW is equal to 2010723.8606 hp(E).
The power is 2010723.8606 hp(E), in horsepower (electric).
2
Consider that a major city's electrical grid requires 2 gigawatts (GW) of power during peak hours. Convert this power demand from gigawatts to Horsepower (Electric).
Answer:
Given:
The power in gigawatts is:
Power(Gigawatts) = 2
Formula:
The formula to convert power from gigawatts to horsepower (electric) is:
Substitute given weight Power(Gigawatts) = 2 in the above formula.
Power(Horsepower (Electric)) = (2 × 1e9)/746
Power(Horsepower (Electric)) = 2680965.1475
Final Answer:
Therefore, 2 GW is equal to 2680965.1475 hp(E).
The power is 2680965.1475 hp(E), in horsepower (electric).

Gigawatts
A gigawatt (GW) is equal to one billion watts. It is used to measure large-scale power output, such as the capacity of entire power grids or large power plants. Gigawatts are used in the context of national or regional energy production.
Horsepower (Electric)
Electric horsepower (hp(E)) is a unit of power used primarily to measure the output of electric motors. It is defined as exactly 746 watts. This unit is useful for comparing the power output of electric motors to other types of engines.
