How to use this Horsepower (Electric) to Gigawatts Converter 🤔
Follow these steps to convert given power from the units of Horsepower (Electric) to the units of Gigawatts.
Enter the input Horsepower (Electric) value in the text field.
The calculator converts the given Horsepower (Electric) into Gigawatts in realtime ⌚ using the conversion formula, and displays under the Gigawatts label. You do not need to click any button. If the input changes, Gigawatts value is re-calculated, just like that.
You may copy the resulting Gigawatts value using the Copy button.
You can also reset the input by clicking on Reset button present below the input field.
Formula
The formula to convert given power from Horsepower (Electric) to Gigawatts is:
Substitute given Power(Horsepower (Electric)) = 200 in the above formula.
Power(Gigawatts) = 200 × 746 / 1e9
Power(Gigawatts) = 0.0001492
Therefore, 200 hp(E) is equal to 0.0001492 GW.

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.
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.
