Definition

A GHG Emissions Calculation Equation is an equation (formula) that typically combines Activity Data, factors and possibly other parameters to derive a GHG Emissions figure. There is a wide variety of possible formulas. Such equations is typically part of the GHG Emissions Calculation Approaches.

Generic Form
