unit requirement; specific consumption; intensity
Technical term used in engineering, manufacturing, and energy fields. Refers to the amount of a resource (energy, material, etc.) consumed or produced per unit of output, such as per product, per area, or per time. Often translated as 'specific consumption' or 'intensity' in technical contexts.
This factory improves the energy intensity per ton of product every year.
By reducing the unit requirement, cost reduction and environmental impact reduction can be achieved simultaneously.
