The calculation of each unit cost of productions is very important for evaluating the economical efficiency and deciding the reasonable sale price. In the present, two methods of exergy costing on multiple energy systems are suggested to reduce the complexities of conventional SPECO method and MOPSA method and to improve the calculation efficiency of exergoeconomics. The suggested methods were applied to a gas-turbine cogeneration and the unit costs of the power and the steam energy were calculated as an example. The main points of our methods are the following three. First, one exergetic cost is applied to one cycle or system. Second, the suggested equations are the internal cost balance equation and the production cost balance equation. Third, necessary states in a system are only inlet and exit states of 1ha components producing energy.

Thermoeconomics or exergoeconomics can be classified into the three fields of cost estimating, cost optimization, and internal cost analysis. The objective of cost estimating is to estimate each unit cost of product and allocate each cost flow of product such as electricity or hot water. The objective of optimization is to minimize the input costs of capital and energy resource or maximize the output costs of products under the given constraints. The objective of internal cost analysis is to find out the cost formation process and calculate the amount of cost flow at each state, each component, and overall system. In this study, a new thermoeconomic methodology was proposed in the three fields. The proposed methodology is very simple and obvious. That is, the equation is only each one, and there are no auxiliary equations. Any energy including enthalpy and exergy can be applied and evaluated by this equation. As a new field, the cost allocation methodology on cool air or hot air produced from an air-condition system was proposed. Extending this concept, the proposed methodology can be applied to any complex system.
