    The document discusses the carbon footprint of electricity production and how emission factors can vary between countries. Emission factors depend on the mix of power plants in each country, including the type of plants, their age, and efficiency. Emission factors also depend on climate and weather conditions like sunlight and precipitation levels. The document provides emission factors and electricity generation data for Croatia from 2006 to 2014, showing the contributions from hydroelectric, thermal, and nuclear power plants.

    Original Description:

    CARBON FOOTPRINT OF ELECTRICITY PRODUCTION

    OR HOW "GREEN" IS THE ELECTRICITY?

    by D. Jeleni
    27.04.2016.

    Country-specific emission factors

    Why are the emission factors so different?


    They are subject to "mix" of power plants (type, size)

    1.

    2.

    They are subject to power plant building date and


    power plant efficiency !

    3.

    They are subject to climate and weather conditions


    (sun insolation, precipitation, etc.)
