Why it Matters ?

Tracks energy efficiency in production.

In-depth Use Case / Real-world Example

Energy Cost per Unit Produced tracks how much energy is required to manufacture a single product. It is calculated by dividing total energy consumption (in kilowatt-hours, for example) by the total number of units produced. For instance, if a factory uses 1,000 kWh to produce 1,000 units, the energy cost per unit is 1 kWh per unit. Monitoring this helps manufacturers identify inefficiencies in energy use and implement energy-saving measures. If energy costs are rising, investing in more energy-efficient machines or optimizing production schedules can reduce overall energy consumption. Lowering this metric can reduce operating costs and improve sustainability efforts.
