CO2

CO2 emissions are calculated based on the information in the input data sheets.

How CO2 Emissions Are Calculated

CO2 Emissions During Transportation

CO2 emissions during transportation are calculated using the following formula:

$$\text{Transportation CO2 Emissions}=\text{Shipment volume (ton)}\times \text{Transport distance (km)}\times \text{Average CO2 emission factor per km·ton}$$

The $\text{average CO2 emission factor per km·ton}$ is based on the ECTA-CEFIC-FECC Guideline.

CO2 Emissions from Facilities

CO2 emissions from facilities use the Fixed CO2 Emission value provided in the input data.

$$\text{Facility CO2 Emissions}=\text{Fixed CO2 Emission}$$
