Machine Energy Use and Cost

Estimate metered energy use, electricity cost, and running-hour cost from measured power and runtime.

Example starting values are prefilled to demonstrate the calculation. Replace them with your measured, quoted, or job-specific inputs before relying on a result.

Inputs

Inputs

Range: at least 0 kW

Use average measured real electrical power across the equipment boundary of interest (press only or press plus auxiliaries). Record that boundary consistently.

Range: at least 0 h

Enter elapsed run time in hours over which the average measured power applies. Zero is allowed.

Range: at least 0 USD/kWh

Enter the energy-only price in USD/kWh, or an explicitly chosen blended rate. Demand charges and fixed monthly fees are not separately modeled.

Result

Electricity cost (USD)
20.16
Electricity cost rate (USD/h)
2.520
Energy consumed (kWh)
144.00
Meter scope and cost limits
Energy and cost reflect only the entered average power, runtime, and energy rate. Results depend on meter scope; separately include dryers, chillers, pumps, robots, and other auxiliaries if they belong in the estimate. Demand charges and fixed fees are not calculated unless embedded in the entered rate.
