Configuring
emission factors
Emission factors are used by the
carbon calculator to covert
measured emissions into CO2 for greenhouse gas calculations.
They should be reviewed yearly by either an application administrator
or the environmental manager.
Configuring energy emission factors
Energy emission factors are used in the carbon calculations. For your results to be accurate, you must first set up the energy emission factors.
Configuring travel emission factors for distance
Travel emission factors for distance are used to determine the conversion factors in the carbon calculations. For your results to be accurate for travel logs that use distance, you must first set up the travel emission factors for distance.
Configuring travel emission factors for usage
Travel emission factors for usage are used to determine the conversion factors in the carbon calculations. For your results to be accurate for travel logs that are based on usage, you must first set up the travel emission factors for usage.
Configuring waste emission factors
Waste emission factors are used to determine the conversion factors in the carbon calculations. For your results to be accurate for waste logs, you must first set up the waste emission factors.
Configuring global warming potential emission factors
Global warming potential emission factors are used to determine the conversion factors in the carbon calculations. For your results to be accurate for emission logs that record emissions such as methane or fluorinated ethers, you must first set up the global warming potential emission factors.
