| Methodology description | The dataset reports the average CO2 emission intensity of district heating in Denmark. Data were sourced from the official statistics published by the Danish Energy Agency and extracted from the indicator "CO2 Emissions per Consumed Unit of District Heating (Observed)" in the agency’s key figures database. The indicator reflects the average carbon dioxide emissions associated with district heating consumption at the national level in Denmark. |
| Limitation / key issues to note | The emission factors represent direct CO2 emissions only and exclude methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and other greenhouse gases; therefore, they should not be interpreted as full CO2-equivalent (CO2e) emission factors. |

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 We use "IPCC 2007 (superseded), climate change, global warming potential (GWP100)" for AR4 CO2e emisison factor values and "IPCC 2013, climate change, global warming potential (GWP100)" for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.
