About AIB
The Association of Issuing Bodies (AIB) is a European organisation that manages and promotes the use of energy attribute certificates to track the production and consumption of renewable energy in Europe. The AIB produces the European Residual Mix Report which includes data on the mix of fuels used to generate electricity in each European country, as well as the associated greenhouse gas emissions.

| Quality flag(s) | Partial factor The source (except for the 2019 dataset) reports emission factors in CO2 only and does not include the impact of other GHGs. Erroneous calculation The AIB does publish a residual factor of zero for Austria but this should not be used for calculations as it would give incorrect results. The Total Supplier Mix factor is the next best available option in the GHG Protocol market-based hierarchy of factors. |
