liquid-fuels Scope 1 (Direct)

Biodiesel (B100)

Emission factor for pure biodiesel (B100). Like ethanol, biogenic CO₂ from biodiesel combustion is not counted, resulting in a very low emission factor covering only CH₄ and N₂O.

What is the emission factor for biodiesel?

The Scope 1 emission factor for pure biodiesel (B100) is 2.5 kg CO₂-e per GJ. Biogenic CO₂ is not counted - this factor covers only CH₄ and N₂O from combustion.

The factor is the easy part

Looking up a factor takes seconds. Getting the quantity off a concrete docket, a subcontractor invoice or a freight consignment, and proving later where it came from, is where Scope 3 reporting for AASB S2 breaks. Carbonly reads physical quantities off supplier documents, matches each line to an NGA or construction EPD factor, and keeps every number traced to its source document. Why Scope 3 breaks.
