As the cofiring level increases from 5%
Energy Storage Battery Savings Calculator
Energy cost saving ($): This is the difference in price between the cost of power to charge the battery (i.e. cheap rate) compared to the cost of power when the battery is to be discharged (i.e. peek rate), e.g Given a cheap rate cost of $0.02 and a peek rate cost of $0.30 the saving would be $0.28. If you are sourcing power from a solar system

How to Calculate Energy Storage in Capacitors: A
The formula for this relationship is: E = 1/2 * Q^2 / C. Where: – E is the energy stored in the capacitor (in joules) – Q is the charge stored on the capacitor (in coulombs) – C is the capacitance of the capacitor (in farads) This formula is useful when the charge on the capacitor is known, rather than the voltage.

LCOE Calculator
Inflation rate = 2% per year. Lifetime = 25 years. Adjusted total cost of electricity over the lifetime of the system = Total cost of electricity over the lifetime of the system x (1 + Inflation rate)^Lifetime = $0.684/kWh x (1 + 0.02)^25 = $1.08/kWh. Therefore, the LCOE for this solar system is $1.08/kWh. This number can be used to compare the
