Convert Horsepower (mechanical) to Megawatts

Horsepower (mechanical) → Megawatts
hp × 0.0007456999 = MW MW × 1341.022 = hp

To convert horsepower (mechanical) (hp) to megawatts (MW), multiply the horsepower (mechanical) value by 0.0007456999. One horsepower (mechanical) equals 0.0007456999 megawatts; one megawatts equals 1341.022 horsepower (mechanical). The conversion is a linear scaling with no offset, so the same factor applies to any value.
