    Topic: To evaluate the carbon emission of imported electricity in LEAP?Subscribe | Previous | Next

    Hi, I am trying to evaluate the carbon emission of a city. We all know that the direct emission is shown in LEAP results, but how do we calculate indirect emissions like those of imported electricity? What I did before was to export the required imported electricity to MS Excel and calculate afterward by Excel.

    Would recommend adding an extra process in your electricity generation module in Transformation called “imports”. You can then specify average emission factors associated with imported electricity, reflecting the way the imported electricity is generated outside the city.
