♦ Category: Energy

IPCC: 1A1ai - Fuel Combustion Activities - Energy Industries - Main Activity Electricity and Heat Production - Electricity Generation
Sector: Electricity Generation (Imports) : Specified Imports : Canada : Armstrong Woodwaste Cogeneration (CAN)

♦ Activity: Electricity generation - Primary fuel: Biomass

♦ Greenhouse gas: Nitrous oxide ( N2O )

► Year 2000 —

● Greenhouse gas emission estimate —

Amount: 0 tonne of N2O Emitted (0 tonne CO2 Eq.)
Basis: Calculation
Calculation: [Electricity Generation] * [N2O emission factor]
Reference: ARB (2012). Upcoming technical support document on GHG inventory methodologies for the 2000-2010 inventory. Specific questions may be directed to ARB staff, see: http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/inventory/contacts.htm

● Activity level used in calculations —

Activity: Electricity generation = 0 kWh of Primary fuel: Biomass
Basis: Data
