Marine Retrofit ROI Calculator

Turn a retrofit idea into a transparent investment screen. Quantify fuel savings, other recurring benefits, added operating cost, installation/off-hire exposure, simple and discounted payback, NPV, IRR and the minimum savings needed to justify the project. Advanced mode adds detailed CAPEX and benefit registers, performance degradation, escalation, financing context, annual cash flows and sensitivity analysis.
