Electricity savings calculator
Put a dollar figure on an always-on load. Enter kW, runtime and your $/kWh and demand charge to see what it costs your plant over a year.
This section will contain
- Inputs (§G.1): load (kW) · runtime hours · $/kWh · demand charge $/kW.
- UX: simple first (2–3 inputs → estimate), then an optional Refine step.
- The result is a data-viz moment, not form output: a §E widget with the money figure large and tabular.
- Export as CSV. The on-page result stays free and crawlable — and it is the ONLY thing this deployment delivers: §G.1's emailed PDF report is not built, so nothing on this site offers one. [TOM-REVIEW] §K.2.

What idle electrical load costs
Coming soon
Energy and demand, priced separately, because demand charges are often 30 to 40% of an industrial bill and they are set by minutes, not months.
The arithmetic is finished and tested. This calculator stays dark until the published rate constants it depends on are confirmed, because a calculator running on a guessed tariff is worse than no calculator.
The constants this is waiting on
electricity.demandChargeRate[TOM-VALUE]Local utility tariff — must be sourced per region. §K.1 #3.
Blocking constants: electricity.demandChargeRate. §G.2 — “a calculator must not ship with any [TOM-VALUE] constant in its live maths.”
This section will contain
- Blocked on
electricity.demandChargeRate($/kW-month) — [TOM-VALUE]. Local utility tariff — must be sourced per region. §K.1 #3.
§G.2 hard rule — this calculator cannot ship until the blocking constants land. The other calculators stay live in the meantime.
Where these numbers come from
This section will contain
electricity.blendedRate— 0.12 $/kWh. [TOM-REVIEW] Ontario Class B blended rate as used in Quantify's own teleprompter ('6,000 hours a year at $0.12/kWh') and concept footnotes. VERIFY against the current IESO/OEB Class B blended rate.electricity.demandChargeRate— — $/kW-month. [TOM-VALUE] Local utility tariff — must be sourced per region. §K.1 #3.
