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.
