Which Emission Factor Databases have we used?

We selected the most relevant databases of emission factors to feed into our tool. From these we use the most appropriate and relevant factors and calculations to create an authoritative assessment of the carbon emissions that are created by a project.

Please note that within the tool you are able to input your own live data and/or use the standardised modelling we have provided.
