Manufacturing Cost Formula

Total Manufacturing Cost =

Battery Cell Cost

  • BMS Cost
  • Enclosure Cost
  • Wiring Cost
  • Connector Cost
  • Nickel Strip Cost
  • Labour Cost
  • Testing Cost
  • Packaging Cost
  • Overhead Cost

Battery Energy Formula

Battery Energy (Wh) = Battery Voltage (V) × Battery Capacity (Ah)

Example

Voltage = 48V

Capacity = 20Ah

Battery Energy = 48 × 20 = 960Wh


Cost per Watt-hour Formula

Cost per Wh = Total Manufacturing Cost ÷ Battery Energy (Wh)

Example

Manufacturing Cost = ₹18,500

Battery Energy = 960Wh

Cost per Wh = ₹19.27/Wh


Cost per Kilowatt-hour Formula

Cost per kWh = Total Manufacturing Cost ÷ Battery Energy (kWh)

Example:

Battery Energy = 0.96kWh

Manufacturing Cost = ₹18,500

Cost per kWh = ₹19,271/kWh


Selling Price Formula

Selling Price = Manufacturing Cost + Profit Margin

Example:

Manufacturing Cost = ₹18,500

Profit Margin = 25%

Selling Price = ₹23,125
