You may copy the resulting Horsepower (Electric) 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 Megawatts to Horsepower (Electric) is:
Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.
Examples
1
Consider that a data center consumes 3 megawatts (MW) of power to run its servers. Convert this power consumption from megawatts to Horsepower (Electric).
Answer
Given:
Power in Megawatts = 3 MW
Converting Power from Megawatts to Horsepower (Electric)...
The formula to convert from Megawatts to Horsepower (Electric) is:
Substitute given Power(Megawatts) = 10 in the above formula.
Power(Horsepower (Electric)) = (10 × 1e6)/746
Power(Horsepower (Electric)) = 13404.8257
Therefore, 10 MW is equal to 13404.8257 hp(E).

Megawatts
A megawatt (MW) is equal to one million watts. This unit is often used to measure the output of power plants or the power consumption of large-scale facilities. It is a standard unit in the field of energy generation and consumption.
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.
