District heating - residual heat without co-firing reduction

Emission factor for district heat supplied from residual heat without co-firing. The original combined emission factor reflects emissions associated with making the residual heat available and transporting it to end users through the heat network. According to the source, the emission factor accounts for heat losses during transport through the network. The underlying CE Delft methodology assumes an average heat transport loss of 15%. To derive the use-phase-only emission factor, the portion attributable to these transmission and distribution losses was removed; the use-phase value was therefore calculated as 85% of the combined use-phase and transmission-and-distribution emission factor. Retrieved from the excel file CO2 Emissiefactoren 2020 providing a Dutch standard list of CO2 emission factors.
