What the 31 factor pages say

One chart per unit, since a kilogram and a kWh do not compare. Colour is the boundary, what the factor counts; every row also names it.

Per L · 11 factor pages

Linear scale, from 2
From 2.23 (Gasolina - Turismos (M1), MITECO) to 3.23 (Kerosine (fossiel, jet A1), CO2emissiefactoren.be) kgCO₂e per L. 2 boundaries appear here, so part of the spread is what each factor counts, not a disagreement between publishers.

Per kWh · 8 factor pages

Linear scale, from 0.26
From 0.264 (Medium distillates - Kerosene (Jet fuel), Statistics Finland) to 0.336 (Ottokraftstoffe - Endenergieverbrauch Verkehr, UBA (DE)) kgCO₂e per kWh. 2 boundaries appear here, so part of the spread is what each factor counts, not a disagreement between publishers.

Per kg · 4 factor pages

Linear scale, from 0
From 0.611 (Heavy fuel oil, ÖKOBAUDAT) to 3.38 (Bitumen, CO2emissiefactoren.nl) kgCO₂e per kg. 2 boundaries appear here, so part of the spread is what each factor counts, not a disagreement between publishers.

Per JPY · 3 factor pages

Linear scale, from 0.0059
From 0.00593 (Petroleum refineries, Open CEDA) to 0.00616 (Petroleum refineries, Open CEDA) kgCO₂e per JPY.

Per EUR · 2 factor pages

Linear scale, from 0
From 0.271 (Kerosene, EXIOBASE) to 1.73 (Non-specified Petroleum Products, EXIOBASE) kgCO₂e per EUR.

Per kWh HHV · 2 factor pages

Linear scale, from 0.22
From 0.229 (Petroleum Products - Natural Gasoline, EPA Hub) to 0.307 (Aviation gasoline, NGA) kgCO₂e per kWh HHV. 2 boundaries appear here, so part of the spread is what each factor counts, not a disagreement between publishers.

Per CAD

OpenIO-Canada puts Diesel and biodiesel fuels at 0.893 kgCO₂e/CAD (Cradle to gate, 2022), the only factor page in this unit.

Who publishes these factors

21 libraries publish them. Each name opens the library's page.

IPCC (946) and EXIOBASE (570) hold 65% of them; the other 19 publish the rest (799).
