The settings of the cost calculator may be easily modified to fit individual needs. The calculator allows
you to calculate costs for two tariffs:
Single zone tariff – this is the simplest form of tariffs - a single rate for each kilowatt is tak-
en into account throughout the analysed interval, regardless of time of day or day of the
week,
Multi-zone tariff – more extensive tariff. It allows you to set three different rates that apply
in different time intervals:
Zone A billing rate – you may enter the cost of 1 kWh for the first time interval of the
day (e.g. daytime rate),
Zone B billing rate – you may enter the cost of 1 kWh for the second time interval of
the day (e.g. night-time rate),
Zone C billing rate (not included in zones A and B).
Settings of the cost calculator are divided into two screens (Fig. 4.26 and Fig. 4.27). The first screen
allows you to configure the following parameters:
Currency – you can choose from a list of several predefined currencies (PLN, EUR, USD, RUB, INR)
or set your own (up to four characters), which will be shown on the list as the last position and marked
with an asterisk (*).
For single zone tariff:
Name of the single zone tariff (C11 as default) – after clicking the name field a panel is
displayed for editing.
Single zone rate – the cost of 1 kWh of energy for the single zone tariff. The panel for edit-
ing will be displayed after the value field has been selected. The value may also be changed
using the icons. Rate values may be entered with an accuracy of four decimal places.
