Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is market for electricity, medium voltage, renewable energy products. The reference product is electricity, medium voltage, renewable energy products. 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 between 1kV and 24 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 reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary market activity.
