Hello all,
I have some clients who assign a social impact cost ($) based on metric tons of CO2 equivalent. I think that the terms CO2 equivalent and the energy plus output, Carbon equivalent, are the same thing. They both adjust the impact based on global warming potential (GWP) factors. However, chatGPT defined the CO2e GWP factors with CO2 = 1, while energy plus GWP factor for CO2 = 0.2727. https://bigladdersoftware.com/epx/docs/23-2/engineering-reference/environmental-impacts.html#carbon-equivalent So, if I'm trying to determine the CO2e for a client, do I need to post process the Carbon Equivalent outputs by (1/0.2727)?
thanks, Greg
