Did some homework after asking about your geographic location and here's my estimation:Initial Outlay - Fixed asset: EUR250,000(i) I would suppose you purchase average machine for ice-cream making for EUR70,000 (Chinese ice-cream machines ranges from EUR7,000 to EUR400,000)(ii) Packaging system for EUR10,000(iii) Installation cost for EUR30,000(iv) Freeze, Refrigerator Storage for EUR50,000(v) Preparation of the facility before installments - air conditioned, waste treatment for EUR50,000(vi) Miscellaneous: EUR40,000 - Upon your call (*) All of the outlay depends on the quality you wants and the local construction pricesInitial Outlay - Production Fixed Cost: EUR20,000Suppose you don't have any production going, there are still some cost for your systems(i) Maintenance cost of machineries: EUR2,000(ii) Cleaning and Sanitation: EUR2,000(iii) Starting machine cost: EUR5,000(iv) Maintenance utilities - electricity, water, waste treatment: EUR3,000(v) Other cost: EUR8,000 - Again your callWorking capital - Inputs: EUR180,000(i) Direct input: Milk, Cream, Food seasoning/ Flavor: EUR100,000(ii) Indirect inputs: Nilon/ Carton Packages: EUR60,000(iii) Others: EUR20,000Working capital - Distribution: EUR40,000(i) I suppose you rent 2 medium-size trucks (with freezer utilities), it would takes you EUR20,000 each/ monht(ii) Suppose you buy them, the cost will be higherVariable cost - Labors & Utilities: EUR100,000(i) Labours: 10 full-time: EUR40,000 in Salaries & EUR20,000 in their expenses per month(ii) Utilities: Depending on productions but suppose you sell well: EUR40,000Variable cost - Tax & Other(i) If you are profitable then yes. Say EUR40,000/ monthThe above costs are to discount your marketing expenses, which can go up to millions of EURI would say you need to have in hands about EUR500,000 - 700,000 in the first 3 months of operations. About 3 -5 months in, as the production is in place, you will generate some revenues to cover the costs afterwards.And you did say "Ice-cream Factory" not a "Family Ice-cream shop" right?
By 2017, North American offices will average 151 square feet per worker, according to real estate data provider CoreNet Global. That's down from 176 square feet in 2012 and 225 square feet in 2010. The rule of thumb for creative open space that startup and small technology companies seek has been decreasing from 200 to 250 square feet to as low as 100 to 150 square feet of “usable" office space per person. What are typical sizes for…?The following office space allocations can be used to help estimate the amount of usable office space required for your business based upon uses. Any common area load factors (typically range between 10% and 20%) will need to be added on to determine the "rentable" area. Large Office - 200 to 400 sq. ft. Medium Office - 150 to 250 sq. ft.Small Office - 90 to 150 sq. ft. Open Space Workstations - 60 to 110 sq. ft. per personWork Group Areas - 80 to 100 sq. ft. per personReception Area - 100 to 200 sq. ft. + 10 sq. ft. per person waitingConference Room - 50 sq. ft + 25 sq. ft. per person seatedMail Room - 125 sq. ft. File Room - 200 sq. ft.Lunch/Break Room - 75 sq. ft. + 25 sq. ft. per person seatedWork Room - 125 to 200 sq. ft. Halls/Corridors within the space - 20% to 30% of the total usable areaAnother way to ask the question is, how do you lease the right amount of space?Make sure that you are accounting for planned growth. Make headcount projections for the expected term of the lease. Then, lease space so that around 2/3 or 3/4 of the way through the term you start reaching the occupancy limit.Keep in mind that no two spaces are alike. Look for spaces that are more efficient, like rectangular spaces versus angled corners of a building. No two spaces with the same square footage are the same. Floor plan and layout matter.If you are planning to grow, minimize the disruption to your business by seeking termination rights and expansion rights on contiguous space. Growing into adjacent space is far less disruptive than relocating your business to another building.Over the years we’ve developed a roadmap for our startup and small business clients to help navigate the process of finding office space.

One MW DG set shall be a risk factor when if it is in maintenance shutdown or failure etc during emergency requirement it entire system will be collapse.All selection should be done in accordance of load factor in the system , if major load is in day time than i would suggest Solar system too.( If not than also it will be good)If load is 1000 KWGo for 2 x 500 KVA (2 x 400 Kw) with synchronizing panel , one has cost of around Rs 60 Lakhs. So 1.2 cr for 800 KW.Rest of load go for Solar of 400 KWp Grid tie plant cost of system shall be 25 to 30 Lakhs. The solar will always synchronized with Grid in case of Grid availableSo Now total cost shall be Rs 1.5 Cr maximum, where as someone suggested to go for 3 x 500 KVA means Total cost shall be Around Rs 1.8 Cr.Solar has advantage whatever generation from morning 7:15 Hrs to 17:45 Hrs 50 watt to 320 KW (80%) shall be compensate in Grid consumption.The Diesel Generator generation cost shall be Rs 15–20/- Per unit , whereas Solar cost shall be Free ( In terms of investment return not more than Rs 3/- per unit).The cost of grid might be in range of Rs 6–8 /- Per unit.Combinations of supply systemGrid with Solar ( approx 1600 KWH per day savings)Solar with DG1 ( 1600 Solar Units plus only single DG running fuel saving )Solar with DG1, DG2Solar with DG2DG 1 with DG 2More over if go for Bio-Diesel mixing in DG sets 50–50% ratio save cost on GST billing (Normal Diesel is under VAT), GST 12% may claim back.The Most suitable and efficient model KTA-19 G of Cummins make for 500 KVA capacity ( Few model of Cummins are excellent and long lasting running without interruption)
Any manufacturing business needs more investment, especially footwear industry. It takes around minimum 10 lakhs of investment to start a footwear industry. It has future scope and also requires more technical knowledge. According to my knowledge any for startups it is very difficult to get loan. There is a category to get as project loan. There are almost many process involved in getting a project loan. If you any collateral like residential property or any plot you can get loan against property where you will get required finance according to the property to start the business. First clearly have business goal and and proper plan then approach right bank for any loan.Quikrupee is an online financial portal providing Business loan, Mortgage loan, Personal loan at low interest with minimal documentation.
First, we have to agree on a type of unit to be used. I prefer using Watts, since it gives "how much energy does a city of 1M consume continuously, on average"Also, we need to specify a city in which country, because sometimes the difference is huge. Here is a ballpark estimation, by type of country, to get a scale of magnitude of power consumption of 1M people.******For countries that are highly industrialized and have high energy consumption (Nordic countries, USA, Australia, etc.), the amount of energy needed for a city of 1 million is about 1500 MW. To give an order of magnitude, that's a typical amount of power generated by a large nuclear power plant or hydroelectric dam (even bigger ones go up to 3000 and more).For some slightly less power-hungry countries (most european countries, also china and south africa), the number is closer to 500 MW (which is about as much as a mid-sized coal or natural gas fired plant makes in the US).For most asian, south-american, and north african countries, the number is closer to 100-150 MW for a city of 1M.For most sub-saharan african countries (excluding south africa), the number is typically less than 50 MW. A common mid-sized wind turbine makes around 2 MW, so less than 25 wind turbines are necessary for a city of 1M.
How many kilowatt hours would I need to power a town of 1000 people plus businesses and a mine?
You need kilowatts, not kilowatt hours. The amount of power you need varies depending on who turns on what at any given time, and especially on what kind of equipment you are using in the mine. Mines can use huge amounts of electric power. Assuming you are talking about a fairly small mine, you are probably looking at something around 500 kilowatts peak demand. This would require a small power plant. You may be able to get a diesel generator this size, but it would be more efficient to use several smaller generators. This would allow you to shut down some generators to vary the output to meet the varying demand.
Add all the kVA loads. You can draw same power and have requirement of entirely different kVA. It is possible to use just 1 kW for example but have requirement of 1.5 kVA.For all the resistive loads, e.g. incandescent bulbs, water heater, etc this is same as their rated power.For all the inductive loads, e.g. motors, ACs, most electronic equipments, etc use the name plate reading or divide the rated power by their pf. This will be a significant part of a factory load.If you have capacitive loads (which is rare), calculation will get a little complex. In that case, a inductive load with the same power and pf will cancel out each others pf and you can simply add their rated power. You might want to familiarize yourself with reactive power and apparent power if you have large capacitive loads.Add all the kVA loads. This is what you will need a distribution company to supply.
