1 for estimating emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide is:

where:
Eij is the emissions of gas type (j), being carbon dioxide, methane or nitrous oxide, from each gaseous fuel type (i) released from the operation of the facility during the year measured in CO2‑e tonnes.
Qi is the quantity of fuel type (i) combusted, whether for stationary energy purposes or transport energy purposes, from the operation of the facility during the year measured in cubic metres or gigajoules and estimated under Division 2.3.6.
ECi  is the energy content factor of fuel type (i) estimated under section 6.5.
EFijoxec is the emission factor for each gas type (j) released during the year (which includes the effect of an oxidation factor) measured in kilograms CO2‑e per gigajoule of fuel type (i) according to source as mentioned in:
 (a) for stationary energy purposes—Part 2 of Schedule 1; and
 (b) for transport energy purposes—Division 4.1 of Schedule 1.
Note: The combustion of gaseous fuels releases emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide.
 (2) In this section:
stationary energy purposes means purposes for which fuel is combusted that do not involve transport energy purposes.
transport energy purposes includes purposes for which fuel is combusted that consist of any of the following:
 (a) transport by vehicles registered for road use;
 (b) rail transport;
 (c) waterborne transport;
 (d) air transport.
Note: The combustion of gaseous fuels releases emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide.

Division 2.3.3—Method 2—emissions of carbon dioxide from the combustion of gaseous fuels

Subdivision 2.3.3.1—Method 2—emissions of carbon dioxide from the combustion of gaseous fuels

2.21  Method 2—emissions of carbon dioxide from the combustion of gaseous fuels
 (1) For subparagraph 2.19(1)(a)(ii), method 2 for estimating emissions of carbon dioxide is:

where:
EiCO2 is emissions of carbon dioxide released from fuel type (i) combusted from the operation of the facility during the year measured in CO2‑e tonnes.
Qi is the quantity of fuel type (i) combusted from the operation of the facility during the year measured in cubic metres or gigajoules and estimated under Division 2.3.6.
ECi  is the energy content factor of fuel type (i) estimated under section 6.5.
EFiCO2oxec is the carbon dioxide emission factor for fuel type (i) measured in kilograms CO2‑e per gigajoule:
 (a) if the fuel's emissions factor for carbon dioxide is 0 in Schedule 1—deemed to be 0 kilograms CO2‑e per gigajoule;
 (b) otherwise—calculated in accordance with section 2.22.
γ is the factor 1.861 × 10‑3 for converting a quantity of carbon dioxide from cubic metres at standard conditions of pressure and temperature to CO2‑e tonnes.
RCCSCO2 is carbon dioxide captured for permanent storage measured in cubic metres in accordance with Division 1.2.3.
