Emission Factor

Electricity - low voltage - renewable energy products (electricity voltage transformation from medium to low voltage - renewable energy products)

Emission factor summary

Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.8. This product represents electrical energy measured in kWh. If electricity is taken from a market for electricity, the transmission infrastructure, country-specific losses and transformation losses (for markets for medium and low voltage) are included. Covers voltages below 1 kV. The Swiss label-certified electricity mix includes an aggregated share for electricity subsidized as 'kostendeckende Einspeisevergütung' (KEV). The generation of electricity from label-certified sources is modelled in dedicated datasets for each voltage level. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. The reference product amount is 1.
