Emission factor summary

Emission intensity of gross use phase emissions in district heating network. This emission factor was calculated by Climatiq using data from Table 1 of the Norwegian District Heating Climate Accounting Report (Fjernkontrollen) https://www.fjernkontrollen.no/uploaded/files/2020_06_01_klimaregnskap_for_fjernvarme_2020.pdf?utm and Tables 2 and 4 from Statistics Norway, District heating and district cooling https://www.ssb.no/en/energi-og-industri/energi/statistikk/fjernvarme-og-fjernkjoling. It was calculated by dividing the calculated total fuel combustion emissions (97,998.7 tCO2e) by the reported total gross district heating production (9205.8 GWh).
