Production energy intensity calculator
Production energy intensity
Energy per unit of output helps separate changes in production volume from changes in performance.
Units
I=ProductionEnergy
I=ProductionEnergy
Calculator
Enter the values you know and leave one box empty. Calculate finds the empty one, the result or any input.
Worked example
Given
- Energy = 84,000,000 Btu
- Production = 12,000 as shown
I=12,00084,000,000=7,000
Given
- Energy = 180,000 MJ
- Production = 6,000 unit
I=6000180,000=30
