⚖️ Economic Thermal Balance Point (°F Switchover: Electric COP vs Gas $/Therm)

Hybrid Dual-Fuel Economic Balance Point Calculator

Calculate the exact outdoor ambient temperature economic switchover point (°F) between an electric air-source heat pump and a natural gas condensing boiler: calculate marginal cost per delivered MMBTU ($/MMBTU based on real-time electric $/kWh divided by COP versus gas $/Therm divided by boiler efficiency), and hybrid energy management margins.
