Electric Power

The 'base' for the standard trucost for electrical energy is as follows:

  • A ton (1,000 kg or 2,200 pounds) of CO2 emissions (CO2e) is 1,000 units

Electricity generation produces carbon emissions and translates to trucost based on the above base as follows:

Energy source

Carbon emissions (tons per CO2e/1000 kWhs)

Standard trucost

Coal

Bubker oil

Natural gas

Diesel

Gas turbine

Nuclear

Solar PV

Central solar

Wind
