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.
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.
