Emission factor from TurkStat CRT-2026-V1.0

Fuel combustion: other sectors - Gaseous fuels

Turkey · Well-to-use · 2024 onwards

Each kilowatt-hour of this fuel from 2024 counts as 0.235 kg CO₂e: 0.202 from burning it and 0.0334 for producing it and bringing it to you (estimated).

Σ 0.235: open-climate.ai adds up the two parts. TurkStat prints fuel combustion. open-climate.ai estimates fuel supply from other published figures.

Reporting this kilowatt-hour under the GHG Protocol

Scope 1 0.202 Scope 3, category 3 0.0334

You burn the fuel, so its combustion is your Scope 1.

Supplying the fuel is Scope 3, category 3 for whoever burns it.

What this number covers

The path of one kilowatt-hour of this fuel, from the well to your flame. TurkStat gives one figure for the first three steps together.

  1. Well-to-tank0.0334Scope 3, cat. 3

    1. Extraction

      Getting the fuel out of the ground

    2. Processing

      Treating it to the quality it is sold at

    3. Transport

      Moving it to your site

  2. Your meter

    1 kWh used. The factor is per kWh measured here.

  3. Burning it

    In your boiler, furnace or engine: CO₂, with a little CH₄ and N₂O

    Scope 10.202

0.0334 + 0.202 = 0.235 per kWh

Outside this boundary

  • Making the boiler that burns it
  • Building the pipelines and the network

TurkStat counts the fuel, not the things built to extract, move and burn it.

Gases

TurkStat 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 TurkStat's record to a comparable factor

TurkStat 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.
