Description
Calculate a supplied stored-energy loss and its signed price value.
Energy prices and charges depend on energy units, demand units, standing-charge days, tariff periods and settlement sign conventions. Purchased-energy losses differ from delivered-energy fractions, and signed prices can produce negative monetary terms. Nominal battery cost allocations are supplied scenarios rather than physical aging forecasts.
Calculate a supplied stored-energy loss and its signed price value.
When to use this tool
Use Battery Standing Loss Value Term when you already have storedEnergy, suppliedLossFraction, energyPrice and need to calculate a supplied stored-energy loss and its signed price value.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter storedEnergy, suppliedLossFraction, energyPrice. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read lostEnergy, signedLossValue. Use the output convention below.
Require storedEnergy>=0 and loss fraction in [0,1]; lost=stored*fraction, signedLossValue=lost*energyPrice.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| storedEnergy | Stored Energy | Required. Finite number; minimum 0. |
| suppliedLossFraction | Supplied Loss Fraction | Required. Finite number; minimum 0; maximum 1. |
| energyPrice | Energy Price | Required. Finite number. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| lostEnergy | Lost Energy | Required. Finite number. |
| signedLossValue | Lost energy*energyPrice; a negative price gives a negative value without changing the nonnegative lost energy. | Required. Finite number. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- Price may be negative. No time-dependent standing-loss model, storage condition or market value is measured.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Reconcile the actual meter series, tariff, contract and billing definitions for an account or market question. Use a complete cash-flow or physical-energy model when needed; a single block overlap, index ratio or supplied settlement term cannot establish actual charges or performance.
