Convert Megawatts to Horsepower (mechanical)

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

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