Emission factor summary

Emission intensity of mobile combustion of fuel. Includes fuel consumption by vehicles that are owned or leased by the company. The primary source is EPA Emission Factors for Greenhouse Gas Inventories - March 9 2018 - WRI - GHG Protocol - Emission Factors from Cross-Sector Tools - April 2014. WARNING: This emission factor has not passed our data validation process as the primary source reports the CO2 value in scf while the GHG protocol converts it to gallons but reports it in scf units. We have included this for completeness to retain consistency with the source. NOTE: This dataset has been deprecated by the source and will be removed soon.
