Whether separate EV meter connection is economical or not?

  • Mr. XYZ of Ahmedabad city want to purchase an EV Car whose battery capacity is 45 kWh. 
  • He want to separate EV connection, whether it is economical or not? 
  • The family’s average monthly residential average consumption is 400 units.  What is most economical option for family.
  • Torrent power energy charges ( Rs. / kWh ) based on monthly consumption is given here.

Rs. 3.20

Rs. 3.95

Rs. 5.00

  •  The Ahmedabad EV tariff charge of Rs. 4.10 per unit and considering no demand charge ( which is actually Rs 25 per kVA per month ). 
  • The monthly electricity consumption from EV charging is approximately 200 units. 
  • Therefore average electricity consumption per month is expected to be around ( 400 + 200 ) is equal to 600 units.
  • Electricity charges only for energy charges slab-wise
