Cost Table

The last menu on the Unit Systems screen is the Cost Table menu. This menu is only available for power plants; it is not included in Low-Carbon Hydrogen Production & Transport plants.

Many cost tables can be shown with different types of units. As an example, consider the Capital Cost and O&M Cost screens under GET RESULTS: Base Plant: 1. Boiler in a Pulverized Coal (PC) plant. The options in the Cost Table menu are:

•cost/unit product: This uses cost table units based on the amount of product (power, in this case) produced. In our example, the Capital Cost table units are $/kW-net and the O&M Cost table units are $/MWh .

•cost or annual cost: This shows cost table results on an annual basis. In our example, the Capital Cost table units are M$ and the O&M Cost table units are M$/yr .

The default for this menu is cost/unit product.

Note:

Low-Carbon Hydrogen Production & Transport Sessions do not currently use these units. This may be added in the future.
