Greenhouse gas (GHG) calculation tool

The greenhouse gas (GHG) calculator is an online tool that measure the CO2 emissions saved thanks to various forms of renewable energy: PV, wind, hydro, demolish wood, sawdust, and manure. For each renewable energy to tool provides specific measurements: tonnes of CO2 saved per year, the number of trees needed to absorb that amount of CO2, and the number of houses emit the same amount of CO2.

The results are offered for the average of the European Union and specifically for Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, Luxembourg, Netherlands, the United Kingdom.

The tool has been developed by the Creating new local Energy Community Co-Operatives (ECCO) Interreg project.
