Carbon emission factors (often referred to simply as “emission factors”) are standardised estimates of the amount of carbon dioxide (CO₂) or other greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere as a result of a specific activity or fuel consumption. They are typically expressed as a quantity of greenhouse gases (e.g., kilograms of CO₂ equivalent) per unit of activity (e.g., per litre of fuel burned, per kilowatt-hour of electricity consumed, etc.).
We've included some basic example emission factors to get you started. This way you can get an idea of the impact of the different types of activities.
Our business carbon footprint calculator is designed to cover Scope 1 (direct emissions), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased electricity), and some of the most common Scope 3 categories (take a look at the notes section of the calculator to see exactly what’s included and excluded).
You can simply edit some simple data in the yellow cells and see what the output is using the pre-built calculations from our expert team.
