| 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. |

IPCC
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is a United Nations body that assesses the scientific evidence related to climate change and offers guidance to governments and policymakers on climate-related issues. IPCC provides a range of emission factors in their reports including energy-related emissions, industrial processes, agriculture, and land use and waste management activities.
