Emission intensity of ferry - average (all passenger). The primary source is UK DEFRA Business Travel - sea 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.

Ferry - average (all passenger)

Emission intensity of supply chain (purchase of service/standard good/capital good) in US dollars spend on: sea travel. Factors retrieved from the Quantis+GHG Protocol Scope 3 Calculator for the year 2016 and apply for years beyond 2016. The same emission factor applies to different types of investments in joint ventures/subsidiaries/associate companies that were not captured in Scope 1 emissions.
