EDC

EDC is a calculation model that has been developed within the framework of work on this website. The model compares the zero alternative, i.e. no measure with a considered energy saving measure. If the latter has a lower value for the total of present value costs, you have profitability. In simple cases, the pay-off time is assessed as being immediate. Break-even points in the form of sensitivity analysis are produced "manually" by the users who are thereby expected to gain a better understanding for how the various concepts interact.  Some modifications to the model may need to be made in certain cases; see more on the Examples page.

A description of how EDC can be used is available in the comments (in the fields with small red triangles) which are associated with the model. You can download this model by clicking here >>
