Emission intensity WTT for natural gas - South Australia (metro). Published by the Australian Government (DCCEEW) in August 2024. Retrieved from the National Greenhouse Account Factors 2024 (XLSX file - sheet: 'Energy - scope 3').

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 raw fuel sources to an organisation site (or asset) - prior to combustion. Retrieved from the Conversion Factors 2019: flat file published by the UK BEIS/Defra at the source URL.

Emission intensity of the supply chain per Canadian dollar spent on: Natural gas. Retrieved from the OpenIO-Canada v2.11 model which is a Canadian Environmentally Extended Input-Output (EEIO) model. The emission factor is provided in purchaser price including taxes retail margins and distribution costs. Endogenization is included meaning the emission factor also accounts for capital goods.
