Lifecycle cost comparison
Enter at least two scenarios to compare lifecycle energy cost.
Method and boundaries
Each year cost = annual energy × tariff × (1 + growth)^(year - 1) + fixed maintenance. Totals add initial capital cost.
This is a scenario estimate using user-entered assumptions. It does not infer utility rates, taxes, financing, replacement timing, demand charges, or regulatory compliance. Currency is a label only.
