Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is heat production, natural gas, at boiler atmospheric non-modulating <100kW. The Reference Product is heat, central or small-scale, natural gas. This product represents heat measured in MJ. The heat is produced through the burning of natural gas in heat and power co-generation units and several types of boilers. The dataset is targeted for central or small-scale heating. The Reference Product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity.
