Basic data
Module
description
A brief description of the module.
This field is optional.
Details and links
to verification
evidence
Any further details can be added here, including, for
example, links to any evidence which supports the actual
data used within this module.
This field is optional.
Country in which
this processing
step takes place
The country in which this plant is located. This information is
needed by the software to select the appropriate emissions
factor for electricity (see below).
This drop down list may also contain a few non-country
options (e.g., local CCGT, EU (medium voltage), etc.). Select
these options if the electricity used is not taken from the
national grid.
Product
Product produced by this module – e.g., biomethane.
Plant yield
Quantity of output per quantity of input (measured in units
of MJ output per MJ input).
Plant inputs
Amount of
electricity used
The total quantity of electricity used (per MJ of output)
during this conversion step.
Electricity
emissions factor
The emissions resulting from the production and use of each
unit of electricity.
Subtotal
Emissions from the production and consumption of electricity
in kilograms of CO2 equivalent per MJ of output from this
module.
Fuel used per MJ of output
Type
Type of fuel used – e.g. natural gas burnt in a boiler to
provide process heat, etc.
Use
The quantity of fuel used during this conversion step, per MJ
of output.
Emissions factor
The emissions resulting from the production and use of each
unit of fuel.
Most users are expected to rely on the default value based
on information provided in the „Type‟ field.
