Biogenic CO2 emission factor for combustion of peat. The GHG emissions standard applied is the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories. Boundaries: Only includes emissions from the combustion of the fuel. Excludes emissions upstream of the combustion of the fuel. Retrieved from Singapore Emission Factors Registry (SEFR) database. The primary data source is National Environment Agency (NEA) Singapore. According to the source: This datapoint references default CO2 CH4 and N2O emission factors in net calorific values from the 2006 IPCC Guidelines (unless stated otherwise) and the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report (AR5). This datapoint is also referenced in NEA's Carbon Tax Calculator for companies under the Carbon Pricing Act (CPA). For CPA companies who wish to do the Carbon Tax calculation please refer to NEA website directly. (https://www.nea.gov.sg/our-services/climate-change-energy-efficiency/climate-change/carbon-tax).

Emission intensity of stationary combustion of biofuel and other biomass. It's not clear if this contains biogenic CO2 or if it contains only CH4 and N2O. This EF might not therefore be suitable for use in reporting scope 1. Published by the Chinese Academy of Environmental Planning. Retrieved from the China Products Carbon Footprint Factors Database (2022).

Biogenic CO2 emission intensity of biodiesels. This can be used to report outside-of-scope biogenic emissions.  Provided by the Official Journal of the European Union for the purposes of the carbon border adjustment mechanism during the transitional period. Retrieved from Annex VIII and calculated by multiplying the columns: Emission factor (t CO2/TJ) and Net calorific value (TJ/Gg) from Table 1 at the source URL.

Biogenic CO2 emission factor for combustion of peat. Calculated using emission factors published by the source and converting from a net to gross calorific value basis by multiplying by 0.9. Published by the Netherlands Enterprise Agency. The net calorific value is retrieved from Table 1 of the pdf file Netherlands: list of fuels and standard CO2 emission factors version of January 2024. NOTE: this value is provided in CO2 only and does not include the impact of other GHGs.

Peat (gross CV)

Biogenic CO2 emission factor for combustion of biomass. Should be reported as 'biogenic' or 'outside of scopes'. NOTE: this value is provided in CO2 only and does not include the impact of other GHGs. Calculated on a gross calorific value (gross CV - higher heating value) basis. The primary source is EPA Emission Factors for Greenhouse Gas Inventories - Table 1 Stationary Combustion Emission Factors - March 9 2018.

Emission intensity of stationary combustion of biofuel and other biomass - CH4 and N2O only. This EF can be used to report 'in-scope' emissions in scope 1 as it excludes emissions of biogenic CO2. Use LCA activity 'biogenic_co2_combustion' for the biogenic CO2 emissions reported outside of scopes. Calculated on a gross calorific value (gross CV - higher heating value) basis. The primary source is EPA Emission Factors for Greenhouse Gas Inventories - Table 1 Stationary Combustion Emission Factors - March 9 2018. NOTE: This dataset has been deprecated by the source and will be removed soon.

Emission intensity of the supply chain per Canadian dollar spent on: aviation fuel. Retrieved from the OpenIO-Canada v2.9 model which is a Canadian Environmentally Extended Input-Output (EEIO) model. The emission factor is provided in purchaser price including taxes retail margins and distribution costs. Endogenization is not included meaning the emission factor does not account for capital goods.

Aviation fuel

Emission intensity for '55: Gasoline for use as fuel in an aircraft'. Published by the Australian Government (DCCEEW) on 21 September 2023: National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting (Measurement) Determination (NGER). Retrieved from Schedule 1 - Energy content factors and emission factors: Part 4 - Fuel combustion - fuels for transport energy purposes.
