Methodology description

The dataset provides net calorific values and CO₂ emission factors (kgCO₂/GJ) for liquid fossil fuels, solid fossil fuels, gaseous fuels, biomass, and waste, covering three successive reporting years per edition. Emission factors are drawn from two sources: default values from the 2006 IPCC Guidelines (updated in 2021 to incorporate the 2019 Refinement) and country-specific values developed for the Netherlands. The fuel list forms an integral part of the Dutch National Inventory Report submitted under the UNFCCC and Paris Agreement.

Climatiq extracts emission factors from Table 1 of the January 2024 edition. They cover fossil fuels, biomass fuels, and waste. All source values are CO₂-only and do not include the impact of other GHGs. Biogenic CO₂ factors are provided separately for biomass fuels (solid biomass, charcoal, biogas, biogasoline, biodiesel, other liquid biofuels, gas biomass, landfill gas, industrial organic waste gas, and peat).

Climatiq provides each fuel in two variants:

Net calorific value (NCV) basis — emission factors retrieved directly from Table 1. Gross calorific value (GCV) basis — emission factors converted from net to gross calorific value by multiplying by a factor of 0.9.
