Net cycle energy-price benefit calculator
Net cycle energy-price benefit
Subtract loss-adjusted charging purchases from avoided peak energy cost before fees and cycling wear.
B=Eout×(ppeak−RTEpoff×100)
Calculator
Enter the values you know and leave one box empty. Calculate finds the empty one, the result or any input.
Worked example
Given
- Eout = 500 kWh
- ppeak = 0.19 $/kWh
- poff = 0.07 $/kWh
- RTE = 85 %
B=500×(0.19−850.07×100)≈53.824
