Emission intensity of stationary combustion of fuel. Fuels conversion factors should be used for primary fuel sources combusted at a site or in an asset owned or controlled by the reporting organisation. The emission factor is calculated using the Gross Calorific Value. Retrieved from the Conversion Factors 2021: flat file published by the UK BEIS/Defra at the source URL.
