In Britain, Europe and Japan, but also in many other developed countries around the world, the metered gas, as measured in cubic centimeters, is adjusted for pressure and temperature and given an adjusted equivalent based on thermal (burning) potential energy release, known as calorific value. | In Britain, Europe and Japan, but also in many other developed countries around the world, the metered gas, as measured in cubic centimeters, is adjusted for pressure and temperature and given an adjusted equivalent based on thermal (burning) potential energy release, known as calorific value. | ||
<b><i>Currently, a KWh of equivalent energy out of gas is priced at roughly HALF the cost of electrical energy.<i></b> | <b><i>Currently, a KWh of equivalent energy out of gas is priced at roughly HALF the cost of electrical energy.</i></b> | ||
Keep in mind that energy unit cost is a derived value based on the pre-determined performance of gas. Production and distribution costs may or may not be separately reflected on the energy bill. A typical billing calculation ends up as below. | Keep in mind that energy unit cost is a derived value based on the pre-determined performance of gas.
