Abstract:
This thesis is on “Life Cycle Cost Assessment” (Gas-based power plant).
We have selected a power plant named Summit 35 MW Gas-Based power plant. To
calculate or estimate unit generation cost. Financial and technical data has been
collected from the EnergyPaC or primary technoeconomic data have been used for
life cycle cost assessment. Tariff for consumer also estimated based on electricity bill
or
Results show that the per unit electricity generation for this power plant is 4.55BDT.
Estimated consumer tariff is ***.
We compared the economical issue with Katakhali 50MW (Oil-based power plant).
For gas and oil based we determined fuel cost. Then we determined the service cost.
For service cost estimation we determined Operation and maintenance cost, Yearly
Depreciation (for depreciation calculation we calculated Intangible plant, Production
Plant & General Plant) Regulatory Working Capital, ECA Loan Calculation,
Commercial Loan Calculation, Return on Equity Calculation. These are the non-fuel
cost. Then we summation the fuel cost and non-fuel cost. Then we get the complete
generating cost/Indicative cost for gas-based power plant and for oil-based power
plant. Finally we compared them. We found that Gas-based power plant is cheaper
than Oil-based power plant which is important.
