Cost Table

The last menu on the Unit Systems screen is the Cost Table menu.

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:

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

•M$(Cap), M$/yr(O&M): 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 $/kW(Cap), $/MWh(O&M) .
