GHG Emissions Calculation Equation

Definition

A GHG Emissions Calculation Equation is an equation (formula) that typically combines Activity Data, factors and possibly other parameters to derive a GHG Emissions figure. There is a wide variety of possible formulas. Such equations is typically part of the GHG Emissions Calculation Approaches.

Generic Form

The general form of a GHG emissions calculation follows the pattern:

$\mbox{GHG Emissions} = \mbox{Activity Data} \times \mbox{Emission Factor}$
