Below are a series of resources aimed to support you in developing a GHG emissions inventory. Gathered from multiple organizations, these selections provide you with a basic set of literature that covers emissions inventories.
Research & technical guidance
Emission factor databases & data sources
Below are a selection of databases and data sources for emission factors. Please note that these should not be applied ‘blindly’, and a subjective assessment of quality (and relevance/applicability to your city) should always be considered. Locally-specific emission factors are usually preferred and considered highest quality, but default factors available via these sources can be used to verify local factors as well as plug gaps. If in doubt, the IPCC 2006 Guidelines and the GPC should always be consulted for guidance on appropriate emission factors.
