47. Levelized production cost (LPC) is a metric that represents the average cost per unit of output over a project’s entire
lifetime, calculated by dividing the total lifetime costs by the total lifetime production. It is used to compare different
production technologies, by aggregating initial investment, operating costs and fuel expenses into a single, comparable
unit cost.
