\subsection{Elements of Costing}
A detailed costing of the TLEP project does not exist yet, and one of the aims of the starting TLEP design study is to produce it.
The total cost of the 80-km version, from an indicative and very preliminary estimate, expressed in arbitrary ``High-energy Collider Funding'' units (HCF), amounts to 7 BHCF. Not surprisingly, the main cost drivers for the whole complex are
expected to be the tunnel, the shafts and the related services and infrastructure (including access
roads), for about 60\% of the price, or 4.1~BHCF. The accelerator and collider rings cover the other 40\%, or 2.9 BHCF, dominated by the 12 GV RF system (1.1~BHCF, including the cryogenics) and the 80 km of magnets (0.8~BHCF). roads). The TLEP project, however, may be considered as a precursor to the VHE-LHC, in which case the
tunnel, corresponding cost would be shared between TLEP and the
tunnel services VHE-LHC. In a very preliminary estimate shown in Table~\ref{tab:cost}, the cost of the accelerator and
collider rings, dominated by the
12 GV RF system and 80 km of magnets
(which could be used -- possibly recyclable for the VHE-LHC
injector) would injector --, was found to be
shared between TLEP and smaller than the
VHE-LHC. LHC construction cost. In view of the large number of Higgs bosons expected to be
produced analysed at TLEP (Section~\ref{sec:Higgs}), the cost of each Higgs boson is expected to be exceedingly competitive, be it expressed either in
HCF CHF per Higgs boson or in
MW MWh per Higgs boson~\cite{1308.2629}.
