Cost Per Kilowatt Calculator





Formula

The formula to calculate the cost per kilowatt (CPKW) is:

\[ CPKW = \frac{TC}{P(KW)} \]

Where:

What is Cost Per Kilowatt?

A cost per kilowatt measures the cost per unit of power. In this case, the power is in kilowatts. This metric is useful for understanding the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of energy consumption.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Step 1: Calculate the cost per kilowatt:

\[ CPKW = \frac{500}{100} = 5 \text{ dollars per kW} \]

Therefore, the cost per kilowatt is $5 per kW.
