Energy Equivalence Calculators
Standard tools to evaluate volume requirements and pricing economics for transitioning to Natural Gas.
Volume Conversion: Liquid to Natural Gas
Brief: Calculate the exact amount of Natural Gas required to replace your current liquid fuel. Input your current fuel type and consumption to evaluate the energy equivalence in both Metric Tonnes (MT) and Standard Cubic Meters (SCM) per day.
Select your existing alternative fuel.
MT / Day
Enter your daily fuel usage.
kcal/kg
Auto-populates based on fuel type. Manually editable.
kcal/Scm
Used to convert MT to SCM. Editable to see volume variations.
Natural Gas Required (Mass)
0.00 MT / Day
Natural Gas Required (Volume)
0 SCM / Day
Price Equivalence: Liquid to Natural Gas
Brief: Calculate the Breakeven Price for Natural Gas. By inputting the price of your current liquid fuel, this tool calculates the maximum price you can pay for Natural Gas while maintaining the exact same energy cost.
Select your existing alternative fuel.
Rs / MT
Enter the Landed Cost excluding taxes.
kcal/kg
Auto-populates based on fuel type. Manually editable.
kcal/Scm
Used to calculate SCM price equivalence. Editable.
Remarks on Taxes: Please ensure the input value for your Liquid Fuel is the Landed Cost (Excluding Taxes). The resulting Natural Gas Breakeven Prices shown below represent the Landed Cost (Including Taxes).

Power Conversions: Natural Gas to Electricity
Brief: Calculate electrical power output (Units/kWh) from Natural Gas based on your plant's Station Heat Rate (SHR) or thermal efficiency. (Note: 1 theoretical kWh = 860 kcal).
