Estimating energy contents and fuel requirements for power plants and large fuel consumers.
Translating fuel oil sales volumes into energy units for emissions reporting and efficiency calculations.

Tips & Best Practices

Always verify the fuel oil reference properties match those assumed by the tool for accurate conversion.
Use the converted megawatt-hour values for comparative and reporting purposes, not for efficiency evaluations.
Consider that variations in fuel composition can affect conversion accuracy, so validate results with actual fuel data where possible.

Limitations

Fuel oil composition and calorific value variations can influence the precision of the fuel oil equivalent unit.
The conversion assumes a standardized reference fuel oil, so deviations may cause inaccuracies.
Megawatt-hour results do not reflect energy losses or conversion efficiencies in real-world processes.
