Your assumptions

Average draw is for the whole system, including its share of IT support equipment. Use measured values when available.

If shared storage or networking is excluded from system draw, add its allocated average power to this input.

SCENARIO A / BASELINE

69.12 MWh

Estimated facility electricity / month

IT energy / month
Productive system-hours
Electricity cost / month
Annualised facility energy

Transparent by design

IT energy (kWh) = systems × average IT draw (kW) × powered-on hours. Facility energy = IT energy × PUE. Electricity cost = facility energy × price per kWh. Productive system-hours = systems × powered-on hours × productive utilisation. Annualised energy = monthly energy × 12, assuming an identical month.

Utilisation affects productive hours only; it does not reduce energy again because power is already an average draw assumption. Zero productive utilisation can still consume electricity. PUE must be at least 1; hours are capped at 744 for a 31-day month.

This is a screening tool, not a quote or engineering design. It excludes capital cost, staffing, software, demand charges, taxes, resilience reserves and emissions. It does not estimate tokens, throughput, GPU equivalence, cooling capacity or availability. Public-cloud electricity is often included in a service price and should not be double-counted.
