About these units
The horsepower (mechanical) (hp) is an imperial unit of power, equal to 745.69987 watts.
The megawatt (MW) is a metric unit of power, equal to 1,000,000 watts.
Going the other way, 1 megawatt = 1,341.0221 horsepower. Power is energy per unit time — engine output in horsepower, air-conditioning capacity in tons, appliance draw in watts. All of them convert cleanly through the watt.
