Emission Factor

Rigid truck 26-32 t - Average/ mixed load - Diesel 5% biodiesel blend

0.1196kgCO2e/tonne-km

Emission factor summary

Well-to-Wheel (WTW) emission intensity of freight. Weights are expressed as gross vehicle weight (GVW). Retrieved from the Global Logistics Emissions Council Framework for Logistics Emissions Accounting and Reporting. (2019). The EF is estimated based 22 percent uplift to the regional values for Europe and South America based on the GLEC guideline provided in the source link. This factor is based on planned distances and a -5% distance adjustment should be applied if actual distances are used. This factor has been calculated incorporating average loads/empty running/repositioning etc. as appropriate to the transport type and as described by the source.
