R290 GWP: global warming potential (AR4, AR5, AR6)
R290 (C3H8) has a 100-year global warming potential (GWP) of 3 under AR4, 0.06 to 3 under AR5, and 0.02 under AR6.
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.
