Emission intensity of upstream lifecycle emissions of stationary combustion of fuel. The value refers to heat supply not to use in the transport sector. Retrieved from the sheet: '07_Stat._Verbr. V. & m.V' of the Excel file 'Emissionsfaktoren zur THG-Bilanzierung (xlsx-Format) 2.0' published by UBA at the source URL. Note: The CO2e value provided by the source but not included here is 1585.71052059817 kg/tonne. This includes a credit for avoided methane emissions which is not permitted under GHG Protocol. The component gases (CO2, CH4, N2O) are correct.
