Emission intensity of domestic air freight to/from UK including radiative forcing (RF) effect reflecting impact of contrails and high-altitude release of GHGs. The primary source is UK DEFRA Freighting goods 2019. WARNING: This emission factor has not passed our data validation process as the primary source reports the CH4 and N2O values in kg but the GHG protocol reports them in grams. We have included this for completeness to retain consistency with the source. NOTE: This dataset has been deprecated by the source.

Emission intensity of domestic freight flight in New Zealand including emissions from combustion and radiative forcing (RF) effect reflecting impact of contrails and high-altitude release of GHGs but not upstream fuel emissions. Published by the Ministry for the Environment of New Zealand in 2020. Retrieved from 2020 Emission Factors Flat File.

Emission intensity WTT of domestic freight flight (within UK) including emissions from radiative forcing (RF) effect reflecting impact of contrails and high-altitude release of GHGs. WTT conversion factors for delivery vehicles & freighting goods should be used to report the upstream Scope 3 emissions associated with extraction/refining and transportation of the raw fuels before they are used to power the transport mode. While the source does not mention it explicitly it is inferred from the methodology that 8% distance uplift is applied for the indirect nature of flights. Retrieved from the Conversion Factors 2022: flat file published by the UK BEIS/Defra at the source URL.
