Emission intensity for '29A: Biomethane'. CH4 and N2O only - excludes biogenic CO2 emissions. Note that the source does not provide biogenic CO2 emission factors. Published by the Australian Government (DCCEEW) on 21 September 2023: National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting (Measurement) Determination (NGER). Retrieved from Schedule 1 - Energy content factors and emission factors: Part 1 - Fuel combustion - solid fuels and certain coal-based products.

Emission intensity for '29A: Biomethane'. CH4 and N2O only - excludes biogenic CO2 emissions. Note that the source does not provide biogenic CO2 emission factors. Published by the Australian Government (DCCEEW) on 31 August 2024: National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting (Measurement) Determination (NGER). Retrieved from Schedule 1 - Energy content factors and emission factors: Part 1 - Fuel combustion - solid fuels and certain coal‑based products. Converted from GJ using the energy content factor.

Emission intensity of stationary combustion of biofuel and other biomass - CH4 N2O and fossil CO2 only. This EF can be used to report 'in-scope' emissions in scope 1 as it excludes emissions of biogenic CO2. Use LCA activity 'biogenic_co2_combustion' for the biogenic CO2 emissions reported outside of scopes.

Retrieved from Schedule 1 - Energy content factors and emission factors: Part 1 - Fuel combustion - solid fuels and certain coal-based products.

Well-to-Tank (WTT) emission intensity of fuel. WTT fuels conversion factors should be used to account for the upstream Scope 3 emissions associated with extraction and refining and transportation of the fuel to an organisation site (or asset) - prior to combustion.
