Emission factor summary

Emission intensity of long-haul (>3700) international economy class flights to/from the UK excluding fuel combustion and radiative forcing (RF) effect reflecting impact of contrails and high-altitude release of GHGs but not upstream fuel emissions. 8% distance uplift applied for indirect nature of flights. Retrieved from the Conversion Factors 2020: flat file published by the UK BEIS/Defra at the source URL.
