Emission factor from Naturvårdsverket
Coking coal - Power plants and district heating
Sweden · Well-to-use · 2024 onwards
Each kilowatt-hour of this fuel from 2024 counts as 0.391 kg CO₂e: 0.335 from burning it and 0.0566 for producing it and bringing it to you (estimated).

- Scope 10.33585.5%
- Fuel supplyEstimatedDerived by open-climate.aiScope 3, cat. 30.056614.5%
Σ 0.391: open-climate.ai adds up the two parts. Naturvårdsverket prints fuel combustion. open-climate.ai estimates fuel supply from other published figures.
Reporting this kilowatt-hour under the GHG Protocol
Scope 1 0.335 Scope 3, category 3 0.0566
You burn the fuel, so its combustion is your Scope 1.
Supplying the fuel is Scope 3, category 3 for whoever burns it.
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.

- BoundaryWell-to-useOne unit of energy as consumed, priced from the well to the point of use: the well-to-tank chain plus the burn for a fuel; generation, its well-to-tank and the transmission and distribution losses for a delivered carrier (electricity, steam or hot water, chilled water).

- Well-to-use
- Fuel supply and fuel combustion
- GWP methodWhich IPCC assessment report's warming potentials convert each gas to CO₂e, and over how many years the warming is counted (GWP100: 100 years). Learn more
- Mixed IPCC reports, 100-year horizon
- Not on the record; set from Naturvårdsverket's method notes
- CO₂e basisWhich carbon the CO₂e counts. Fossil only leaves out biogenic CO₂ and land use; net total counts every pool, net of removals. The same activity on two bases is two different numbers. Learn more
- Excl. biogenic CO₂
- Not split by gas; CO₂e only

All values
35 values, one per year back to 1990. Every one is biogenic CO₂ and land use excluded, Mixed GWP100, so the years compare directly.

What this number covers
The path of one kilowatt-hour of this fuel, from the well to your flame. Naturvårdsverket gives one figure for the first three steps together.
Well-to-tank0.0566Scope 3, cat. 3
Extraction
Getting the fuel out of the ground
Processing
Treating it to the quality it is sold at
Transport
Moving it to your site
Your meter
1 kWh used. The factor is per kWh measured here.
Burning it
In your boiler, furnace or engine: CO₂, with a little CH₄ and N₂O
Scope 10.335
0.0566 + 0.335 = 0.391 per kWh
Outside this boundary
- Making the boiler that burns it
- Building the pipelines and the network
Naturvårdsverket counts the fuel, not the things built to extract, move and burn it.
Gases
Naturvårdsverket publishes this factor as CO₂e only, with no split by gas. The CO₂e leaves biogenic CO₂ and land-use carbon out; methane from biogenic sources is counted.
From Naturvårdsverket's record to a comparable factor
Naturvårdsverket publishes one of the two parts; open-climate.ai estimated the others and added them all up to this total. Here is each field as printed and what open-climate.ai made of it.
The total and its parts
Each part has its own page. Use a part on its own when you report Scope 1 and Scope 3 separately; never add a part to the total.
