The metric equivalent, if you’re talking about how it’s measured in places like Europe, is kilowatts.
As far as arbitrary units of measurement go, horsepower and candlepower at least sound cool.
I had not heard of candle power before but foot-candles always gets a chuckle out of me for ridiculous name
