One value, for any year
MOENV coefficients sets no date window, so there is no year to pick.

- LoadHow full the vehicle runs. MOENV coefficients does not say which load this factor assumes.
- Not stated
- Vehicle sizeThe vehicle's class, by weight or capacity. MOENV coefficients does not say which size this factor assumes.
- Not stated
- Distance bandFlights are priced by distance band, because take-off and climb burn a large share of a short flight's fuel. Road, rail and sea factors apply to a trip of any length.
- Any distance, not banded
- Cabin classA business seat takes more of the cabin than an economy one, so it carries more of the flight's emissions. First class on a long-haul flight counts four times economy.

Where 0.693 comes from
MOENV coefficients prints this factor as a single figure, with no parts to add up and no split by gas.
Reporting this tonne-kilometre under the GHG Protocol
Scope 3, category 4 0.693
You pay a carrier to bring goods in, or to move them between your own sites. All of it goes in upstream transport.
The factor, standardised
Every factor on open-climate.ai answers the same questions in the same words, whatever the publisher. Open any ⓘ for the definition.

Per tonne, per vehicle or per passenger
One trip, three ways to count it. Pick the unit you have a number for.
One tonne of goods carried one kilometre. Use it when you know what the shipment weighs.
0.69312 t over 300 km is 3,600 t.km, so 2,495 kg CO₂e
One person carried one kilometre, on a bus, a train or a flight. It never applies to goods.
Not for goodsWhat this number covers
The path of one tonne-kilometre, from the oil well to the delivered load.
Fuel production
Extracting, refining and delivering the fuel
IncludedVehicle operation
Burning the fuel on the road, spread over the average load
IncludedEffect at altitude
Contrails and other warming from burning fuel high up. Flights only.
Not applicable on the roadYour shipment
1 tonne moved 1 km. The factor is per tonne-kilometre.
= 0.693
Outside this boundary
- Building the vehicle
- Employee commuting
Vehicles and infrastructure sit outside every well-to-use factor. Some libraries price building the vehicle as a factor of its own.
From MOENV coefficients's record to a comparable factor
