A cost estimation application for determining feasibility assessment of Li-Ion battery in mini plant scale

Abstract

We proposed a cost estimation application in determining the feasibility of Li-Ion Battery manufacturing planning. The application is development of previous research about cost estimation model and technical feasibility study in Li-Ion battery manufacturing in mini plant scale. Cost estimation model is constructed in activity-based costing (ABC) model, while the technical feasibility process is constructed in Goldsmith Technology Commercialization Model. The application uses production planning data in ABC model for technical feasibility, market study data for market feasibility and management planning data for business feasibility. Management team can adjust the planning if the application shows that the planning is infeasible. By this application, management team can assess the feasibility of Li-Ion battery manufacturing planning in simple way considering the fluctuation of parameters. Numerical example has been simulated and shows the result in simple and fast way. The result can be consideration for Li-Ion battery management team in producing and business planning.
