Fuel consumption in power plants depends on power output, runtime, and specific fuel consumption (SFC). SFC varies by plant type—diesel generators typically consume around 220 g/kWh, while coal plants may consume 270–300 g/kWh.
By entering your power plant’s output and operation time, this calculator estimates how much fuel is consumed, the cost (if price is provided), and CO₂ emissions using average fuel-specific emission factors.
