Output from the Energy At-Risk Calculator
Each metric is shown with its formula and a narrative explanation of its application:
· Conversion of all fuel and power inputs to MMBtu · Simple payback · Accounting rate of return on investment BETTER... · Net present value · Internal rate of return
BETTER YET... · Cost to save vs. the cost to buy a unit of energy · The cost of “doing nothing” · Cost-benefit measure · Break-even threshold (maximum value of an improvement project)

The Energy At-Risk model demonstrates the economic and financial merit of energy improvement projects. Based on commonly-used spreadsheet tools, the Energy At-Risk model provides both numerical and graphic representation of financial impacts. Users simply input a volumetric description of energy use and waste reduction, per the results of separate engineering analysis. The results integrate energy variables with business performance in a format that is compelling to non-technical business leaders. |
