| Methodology description | The CO2 emission factors published on CO2emissiefactoren.nl is based on a standardized, activity-based methodology developed through a collaboration between the Dutch government and expert organizations. The methodology follows the Greenhouse Gas Protocol structure, distinguishing between Scope 1 (direct emissions), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased energy), and Scope 3 (other indirect emissions in the value chain). For energy-related activities, the dataset typically uses total (well-to-wheel) emission factors, which include both direct emissions from combustion and upstream emissions from fuel production and supply. The emission factors are based on national averages and are updated regularly using the latest available data to ensure consistency and comparability for applications within the Netherlands. |

Climate Transparency is a global partnership organisation funded by the German Government, World Bank, and several other bodies. It seeks to stimulate climate action in G20 countries through enhanced transparency. The Climate Transparency Report annually provides the emission intensity of electricity generation for various countries, based on the emissions from the respective grid mix.

ecoinvent
ecoinvent is a Swiss not-for-profit association that provides a Life Cycle Inventory (LCI) database that supports various types of sustainability assessments. This data enables users to gain a deeper understanding of the environmental impacts of their products and services. ecoinvent provides multiple climate impact indicators. We use "IPCC 2007 (superseded), climate change, global warming potential (GWP100)" for AR4 CO2e emisison factor values and "IPCC 2013, climate change, global warming potential (GWP100)" for AR5 values.
