What is gram CO2e?

Gram of CO2 equivalent (g CO2e) is a small-scale carbon emissions unit. It is used to express the carbon footprint of individual products, food items, and short journeys where emissions are minimal.

What is megawatt hour CO2e equivalent?

Megawatt hour CO2 equivalent is a large-scale carbon emissions unit used to assess the environmental impact of power generation facilities, industrial processes, and energy-intensive operations.

Worked examples

1 gram CO2e = 0.0000026 megawatt hour CO2e equivalent

1 megawatt hour CO2e equivalent = 385 kilogram CO2e
