Russian term or phrase: экономико-энергетический пересчет
This is an academic article on EROEI (energy returned on energy invested) of oil, gas, and other energy sources. Here is the preceding sentence, and the sentence containing the term I'm having trouble with:

Как было отмечено выше, EROEI по определению не зависит от финансово-экономических результатов, и таким должен оставаться. Поэтому, по мнению авторов данной статьи для расчета EROEI подходят только те методики, которые исключают экономико-энергетический пересчет.

Further on, this hyphenated term is used repeatedly, so I want to get it right, of course! Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks, Vaddy! This is the best because you take into account that the authors are contrasting the costs in terms of both currency expenditures and energy expenditures. Of course, I will double check with the authors.

economic feasibility


Explanation:
I am not exactly sure if the oil and gas industry uses this particular term for the purpose - hence the low confidence - but that's exactly what they seem to mean here: economic feasibility, i.e. price vs. costs, doesn't matter in this particular case. What does is the straightforward energy input vs. output regardless of the economics behind it.
