Select the object, and then open the Object→Transfrom dialog, and select the Move tab.

There you have options for moving horizontally or vertically, in several units.

Just modify the Y value in the toolbar, adding 45 to move the element up.

If you don't want to calculate, you can even add + 45 px, inkscape will do the math for you.
