# Emission Factors for Greenhouse Gas Inventories

Typically, greenhouse gas emissions are reported in units of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO 2 e). Gases are converted to CO 2 e by multiplying by their global warming potential (GWP). The emission factors

listed in this document have not been converted to CO 2 e. To do so, multiply the emissions by the corresponding GWP listed in the table below.

Steam and Hot Water: EPA (2008) Climate Leaders Greenhouse Gas Inventory Protocol Core Module Guidance - Indirect Emissions from Purchases/Sales of Electricity and Steam . Assumption: 80% boiler efficiency

and fuel type assumed natural gas. Factors are per mmBtu of steam or hot water purchased. Source: Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), Fourth Assessment

Report (AR4), 2007. See the source note to Table 9 for further explanation.

the Federal Highway Administration Highway Statistics 2012.

Fuel consumption data and passenger-miles data for rail are from Tables A.14 to A.16 and 9.10 to 9.12 of the Transportation Energy Data Book: Edition 32. Fuel consumption was converted to emissions by using fuel and electricity emission

factors presented in the tables above.

Notes:

A Passenger car: includes passenger cars, minivans, SUVs, and small pickup trucks (vehicles with wheelbase less than 121 inches).

B Light-duty truck: includes full-size pickup trucks, full-size vans, and extended-length SUVs (vehicles with wheelbase greater than 121 inches).

C Intercity rail: long-distance rail between major cities, such as Amtrak

D Commuter rail: rail service between a central city and adjacent suburbs (also called regional rail or suburban rail)

E Transit rail: rail typically within an urban center, such as subways, elevated railways, metropolitan railways (metro), streetcars, trolley cars, and tramways.

Notes:

Vehicle-mile factors are appropriate to use when the entire vehicle is dedicated to transporting the reporting company's product. Ton-mile factors are appropriate when the vehicle is shared with products from other companies.

100-year GWPs from IPCC Fourth Assessment Report (AR4), 2007. IPCC AR4 was published in 2007 and is among the most current and comprehensive peer-reviewed assessments of climate change. AR4 provides revised GWPs of

several GHGs relative to the values provided in previous assessment reports, following advances in scientific knowledge on the radiative efficiencies and atmospheric lifetimes of these GHGs and of CO

2 . Because the GWPs provided in AR4

reflect an improved scientific understanding of the radiative effects of these gases in the atmosphere, the values provided are more appropriate for supporting the overall goal of organizational GHG reporting than the Second Assessment

Report (SAR) GWP values previously used in the Emission Factors Hub.

While EPA recognizes that Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) GWPs have been published, in an effort to ensure consistency and comparability of GHG data between EPA’s voluntary and non-voluntary GHG reporting programs (e.g. GHG

Reporting Program and National Inventory), EPA recommends the use of AR4 GWPs. The United States and other developed countries to the UNFCCC have agreed to submit annual inventories in 2015 and future years to the UNFCCC

using GWP values from AR4, which will replace the current use of SAR GWP values. Utilizing AR4 GWPs improves EPA’s ability to analyze corporate, national, and sub-national GHG data consistently, enhances communication of GHG

information between programs, and gives outside stakeholders a consistent, predictable set of GWPs to avoid confusion and additional burden.
