www.energystar.govEnergy savings are reflected in a company’s profit-and-loss statement as reduced operating costs, which directly increase profitability. Total annual energy costs to operate a supermarket are usually equivalent to net profit: Both are between 1 and 2 percent of sales. Therefore, a 10 percent reduction in energy costs can increase net profit

Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE)
www.energy.govKey Concept: Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) •Measures lifetime costs divided by energy production •Calculates present value of the total cost of building and operating a power plant over an assumed lifetime. •Allows the comparison of different technologies (e.g., wind, solar, natural gas) of unequal life spans, project size,
