How This Calculator Works
This calculator estimates the total fuel usage, cost, and CO₂ emissions for Ferretti yachts based on your chosen model, travel distance, and fuel type. Ferretti yachts typically operate on high-efficiency diesel engines but can also run on biodiesel blends.
Fuel Consumption Formula:
Fuel Used = Distance × Fuel Consumption Rate (liters per nautical mile)
CO₂ Emissions = Fuel Used × Emission Factor
Emission Factors:
- Diesel: 2.68 kg CO₂/liter
- Biodiesel: 2.50 kg CO₂/liter
