Can I install PowerPivot in a MacBook?
I do a lot of financial analysis and need to install PowerPivot in my MacBook. Is there a way I can do this?
Thank you!

If there is not a Mac version available then y can run Windows on your Mac two ways:
- In a virtual machine app like the paid Parallels or the free VirtualBox
- Run Widows natively on the Mac hardware using Apple Boot Camp

I any event you have to purchase the Windows software.
For your application I would go with running Windows in a virtual machine. Easier to setup
I purchased MS Office for Mac but haven't been able to install the PowerPivot feature and wasn't sure if it's available for Macs or not.
based on this,

Office 2016 for Mac now includes PowerPivot
However, if you
have El Capitan there are problems with both Office 2011 and 2016 and El Capitain

In any event, post in Microsoft's forum
I do have El Capitan. What a bummer!! Thank you so much for the info. This has really left me feeling like I shouldn't have purchased a Mac. 😟
i believe you misread the Register article. It comments that PowerPivot is not available in Mac Excel 2016.
seems no powerpivot for Mac at the linked offered by bpmajesty.
ah yes. My apologies. I didn't read all the way to the bottom. I've left feedback for the author to specify that his page is Windows only - not Mac.
