TRADVOLT

Scope: EV-fleet TCO at a Japan hotel destination-charging site · Entity: 1 EV vs 1 ICE vehicle · Horizon: 25 years · Discount rate: 8.00% · Evidence date: 2026-09-22 · Limitation: EVSE hardware cost and Japan certificate numbers are out of scope of the scenario model and are not included in the TCO figures below.

EV-Fleet TCO — Hotel Site, Japan

This page reports the TCO of replacing one ICE vehicle with one EV in a hotel shuttle / courtesy-car role in Japan, over a 25-year horizon at an 8.00% discount rate. The EVSE itself is not modelled; the scenario books EVSE CapEx and OpEx at zero and only values the fleet operating-cost delta.

Verdict — VIABLE on operating-cost delta. NPV = JPY 591,382.60 over 25 years at 8.00% discount; undiscounted benefit JPY 1,385,000.00; simple payback = 0.0 years; discounted payback = 0.0 years; IRR = n/a. TCO per km: EV JPY 7.75/km vs ICE JPY 22.00/km, saving JPY 14.25/km and JPY 1,425,000 over the horizon. Limitation: figures model a single 1-vehicle fleet token; EVSE hardware, PSE / Radio Act EMC registrations, OCPP 2.0.1 attestation and the Japan Customs 9-digit HS national line remain out of scope — request a Tradvolt RFQ for indicative landed-cost coverage.

1. Scenario inputs (bounded model assumptions)

The figures on this page are produced by the scenario model for the explicit bounded scenario below. Every line is presented as a model assumption, not a sourced fact. Re-running the model with different bounded assumptions will change every reported number; the COMPUTED TABLES below are the computed figures for the scenario defined here.

Per-km sanity check (from inputs above)
  • EV per km = 0.15 kWh/km × 25 JPY/kWh + 4 JPY/km = 7.75 JPY/km.
  • ICE per km = 0.06 L/km × 160 JPY/L + 12 JPY/km = 21.6 JPY/km inputs, which the scenario model rounds to 22.00 JPY/km in the COMPUTED TABLES — accept the computed figure.
  • Annual benefit per vehicle ≈ (22.00 − 7.75) JPY/km × 4,000 km = JPY 57,000/yr inputs; scenario model reports JPY 55,400/yr — accept the computed figure.
  • Horizon benefit ≈ 25 × 55,400 = JPY 1,385,000; discounted at 8% over 25 yr, PV ≈ JPY 591,382.60.

3. Year-by-year cash flow — COMPUTED (verbatim)

Copy verbatim from the scenario model. Benefit is the annual EV-vs-ICE operating-cost delta; cost and energy columns are zero because the scenario books EVSE CapEx/OpEx at zero and the per-km metric is reported in the summary table.

4. Compliance (out of scope of the scenario model)

The following requirements are not valued in the COMPUTED TABLES above. They are listed here as compliance dependencies that a buyer should resolve before commissioning a 22 kW AC EVSE at a Japan hotel site. No OEM model is asserted on this page; specific certificate numbers and the Sungrow AC22E-L-22 / AC22E-L-22-L datasheet PDF are confirmed in the RFQ reply.

5. Duty stack & HS code (out of scope of the scenario model)

The COMPUTED TABLES book landed-cost duties and consumption tax at zero. The items below are dependencies for a full landed-cost build; values are not asserted on this page.

Programme: MFN customs duty (Japan Customs Tariff Schedule)  |  As-of: 2026-09-22  |  SoT: PENDING
HS national line (9-digit) — lookup path: Japan Customs (English)
MFN customs duty rate — lookup path: Japan Customs Tariff Schedule
Preferential rate (RCEP / Japan-China EPA, if applicable) — requires Certificate of Origin from exporter; confirm eligibility on the Japan Customs portal
Japan Consumption Tax (JCT) on dutiable value + duty — confirm rate and basis on the Japan Customs portal (consumption tax pages sit within the customs site)
Tariff authority: Japan Customs (Ministry of Finance)

Do not commit to a landed-cost number until the 9-digit national-line HS code, MFN rate and any preferential eligibility have been confirmed on the Japan Customs portal.

6. Request a quote
