Solar Fuel Station Calculator

Friends of the Earth’s Clean Cars Program has developed a Solar Fuel Station Calculator to assist municipalities and businesses in determining the costs and benefits associated with installing solar fuel stations for electric vehicles.  The calculator walks the user through a series of questions and provides answers for the following:

 
·         Station Costs
·         Net Present Value
·         Internal Rate of Return
·         Gas Cost Savings
·         Grid Cost Savings
·         GHG Emissions Reduced (annually / tons of CO2)
·         GHG Cost Savings (savings associated with GHG emissions reductions based on a range of dollar values assigned to carbon emissions)
 
The calculator is currently a beta version.   If you have feedback or questions, please contact Sara Schedler at (415) 544-0790 ext. 217 or sschedler@foe.org.
