R116 GWP: global warming potential (AR6)

R116 (PFC-116) has a 100-year global warming potential (GWP) of 12,400 under AR6 and 12,600 under WMO 2022.

A GWP is counted in kilograms of CO₂ equivalent (kg CO₂e) per kilogram of gas released.

GWP by IPCC report and horizon

One row per figure. When publishers print different figures under one report, each figure gets its own row.
