Emission factor summary

Emission intensity of residual mix as reported. EF is generated based on life-cycle analysis (LCA) and thus including up- and downstream impacts throughout the electricity generation value chain. Published by the Association of Issuing Bodies (AIB). Retrieved from 2018 European Residual Mix Report. The source does not clarify if the kgCO2e value is calculated using either IPCC Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) or IPCC Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) methodologies.
