Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is natural gas, burned in gas turbine. The reference product is natural gas, burned in gas turbine. Natural gas, burned in gas turbine describes the use of a fossil fuel. It is a gaseous fuel sourced from oil and gas production or via evaporation of liquified natural gas. This exchange provides the service of burning 1 MJ of natural gas (supplied at high pressure) in a gas turbine for the purpose of providing energy to processes in the liquefaction/evaporation, transmission, and distribution of natural gas. The services also includes (air) emissions, infrastructure and the production and provision of fuel. 1 MJ of fuel input equals 0.02778 m3 of natural gas. The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity.
