Calculation

  1. 1Emission = 100 × 0.5703 = 57.03 kgCO₂e
  2. 2Tree-year equivalent = 57.03 ÷ 18.3 ≈ 3.1
Electricity uses the national grid average factor 0.5703 kgCO₂/kWh (MEE, 2022); the 2024 lifecycle factor is 0.5777 kgCO₂e/kWh. Gasoline/diesel/natural gas are converted from national guideline defaults (~2.3/2.6/2.16 kgCO₂e per unit). Travel factors are common reference values and vary by methodology - use "Custom factor" for local data. Tree equivalence assumes ~18.3 kgCO₂ absorbed per tree-year (approximate).
