Sulphur Hexafluoride (SF₆)
Global Warming Potential for SF₆, a potent synthetic greenhouse gas used as an electrical insulator in high-voltage switchgear and circuit breakers.
Emission Factor Value
24,300
GWP (kg CO₂-e/kg)
What is the GWP of SF₆?
SF₆ has a Global Warming Potential of 24,300 - the most potent greenhouse gas known. Just 1 kg of SF₆ equals 24.3 tonnes of CO₂-equivalent emissions.
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.
