Other regional car transport
[/transport/car/generic/ghgp/other]
The Other regional car transport category represent data and methodology from the GHGP worksheet Mobile Combustion GHG Emissions Calculation Tool v2.0, and allows the user to calculate emissions from a non-UK or US car journey depending on the fuel powering the car.
To use this category, the user selects the fuel type using the fuelType drill option, from the following options.
- diesel
- gasoline
The distance is then set as a profile item value.
The algorithm returns a kg CO2 value for the selected distance and vehicle type.
Users can opt to share emissions amongst passengers by setting the number of passengers using the occupancy profile item value. Setting multiple passengers will result in the emissions per passenger being returned. If not set, CarbonKit will return the emissions assocated with the entire vehicle.
