Miles Per kWh Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Miles Per kWh (MPkWh) is:

\[ MPkWh = \frac{\text{Miles Driven}}{\text{Energy Consumed (kWh)}} \]

Where:

\( MPkWh \) is the Miles Per kWh efficiency.
\( \text{Miles Driven} \) is the total distance driven in miles.
\( \text{Energy Consumed} \) is the total energy used to drive the distance in kilowatt-hours (kWh).

What is Miles Per kWh?

Miles per kWh is a measure of the efficiency of an electric vehicle (EV). It indicates how many miles the vehicle can travel on one kilowatt-hour of electricity. This metric is similar to miles per gallon in gasoline vehicles but specific to the energy consumption of electric vehicles. It helps to understand the cost-effectiveness and environmental impact of driving an EV.

Example Calculation

Consider an example where:

Miles Driven: 100 miles
Energy Consumed: 25 kWh

Using the formula to calculate the Miles Per kWh:

\[ MPkWh = \frac{100}{25} = 4 \text{ miles/kWh} \]

This means that the efficiency for this example is 4 miles per kWh.
