Life Cycle Cost Savings
Life Cycle Costing (LCC) aims to quantify the financial impact of a product over its entire life cycle to assist consumers in making decisions that will save them money over the long term.
An efficient product is cost effective when the utility costs saved over the life of the product exceed the additional upfront cost (if any) of the more efficient model.
To calculate life cycle cost savings, explore these tools:
- EPEAT offers a benefits calculator
to quantify the environmental and financial benefits compared to standard products. - NREL’s Levelized Cost of Energy Calculator
can help estimate the cost of electricity as an input for your lifecycle cost calculations, accounting for both cost escalation and discount rates.
