Calculations and Methods for Determining GHG Emissions

The following methods can be used to estimate GHG emissions:

· Measuring GHG emissions from identified sources and converting them to CO2 equivalent using GWP.

· Measuring energy use and converting it to CO2 equivalent using notified emission factors

· Estimating GHG emissions from production using product emission factors

· Estimating GHG emissions based on fuel consumed and its composition (ultimate analysis)

· Approaches for estimating GHG emissions from transport

· Estimating GHG emissions from chemical reaction using material balance
