Emission factor summary
Emission intensity of freight. Published by the Global Logistics Emissions Council Framework for Logistics Emissions Accounting and Reporting v3.1 edition revised and updated (2024). Retrieved from Table 4: European rail diesel traction emission intensity values. SFD is the shortest feasible distance and represents the shortest practical route between two places taking into account the real operating conditions. This factor has been calculated incorporating average loads/empty running/repositioning etc. as appropriate to the transport type and as described by the source.
