Sizing calculator

How many modules, how many hours, how many trucks.

Enter the plant load and the autonomy you need. The calculator uses LNGVault's published basis: LNG at 82,644 Btu/gal (LHV), 40% net electric efficiency, about 103 gallons of LNG per MWh.

Estimates for budgeting only. Trailer count assumes about 10,000 gallons of LNG per delivery. Lease is $4,000–5,000 per tank per month, indicative, before fuel and EPC. Final sizing depends on generation heat rate, dispatch profile, site layout, and NFPA 59A siting.
