Emission factor summary
Emission intensity of wood pellets. The activity unit is kg ds and stands for kilograms of dry solids. This unit is used to measure the weight of biomass materials excluding any moisture content ensuring that emission calculations are based on the actual combustible material. Retrieved from the excel file CO2 Emissiefactoren 2023 providing a Dutch standard list of CO2 emission factors.
