I'm sure there is some minimal HP loss through the alternator, but assuming that your battery is in good condition, the HP loss is much less than an engine driven fan, as much as a 6 HP gain.
In addition the fan is not dependent upon engine rpm for cooling, it's instigated by a thermostat sensor.
....And because it's not engine driven, it IS more efficient...and much quieter than an engine driven fan.
