Where 0.00326 comes from
open-climate.ai adds up the gases TurkStat publishes, each weighted by its warming potential.
Reporting this kilowatt-hour under the GHG Protocol
Scope 1 0.00326
You burn the fuel, so its combustion is your Scope 1.
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.

- BoundaryCombustionDirect emissions from burning the fuel at the point of use, in a boiler, furnace, engine or vehicle (for a vehicle, tank-to-wheel). Learn more
- Combustion
- 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
- IPCC AR6, 100-year horizon
- Not on the record; set from TurkStat's method notes
- CO₂e basisWhich carbon the CO₂e counts. Fossil only leaves out biogenic methane, land-use change and biogenic CO₂; excl. biogenic CO₂ counts biogenic methane but not the other two; net total counts every pool, net of removals. The same activity on two bases is two different numbers. Learn more

All values
25 values, one per year back to 2000. Every one is biogenic CO₂ and land use excluded, AR6 GWP100, so the years compare directly.

What this number covers
The path of one kilowatt-hour of this fuel, from the crops or residues it is made from to your engine or boiler.
Your meter
1 kWh used. The factor is per kWh measured here.
Burning it
In your engine or boiler: mostly CO₂ the plants took up as they grew, with a little CH₄ and N₂O
0.00326
= 0.00326 per kWh
Outside this boundary
- Producing and delivering the fuel
- Making the boiler that burns it
- Building the pipelines and the network
TurkStat counts only burning the fuel, not producing and delivering it or the things built to extract, move and burn it.
Gases
Basis: Excl. biogenic CO₂Biogenic CO₂ and land-use change are left out; fossil CO₂, the other greenhouse gases and methane from biogenic sources are counted. Learn moreFossilBio CH₄Land useBio CO₂GHG Protocol and IPCC inventories
- Biogenic CO₂0.26398.8%
- Nitrous oxide (N₂O)0.002851.1%
- Biogenic methane (CH₄)0.0004050.2%
Σ 0.000405 + 0.00285 + 0.263 = 0.266147, more than the 0.00326 total TurkStat prints.
Each gas is converted to CO₂e with AR6 100-year warming potentials; biogenic CO₂ and land-use carbon are left out, while methane from biogenic sources is counted.
