4. Calculation of Emissions (CO2e)

Emissions are calculated by multiplying activity data by relevant emission factors. All results are expressed in kg CO2e. The following sections detail the calculations by GHG Protocol scope.

4.1. Scope 3: Upstream Emissions (Value Chain - Cradle-to-Gate Materials & Transport)

This covers Category 1 (Purchased Goods and Services) and Category 4 (Upstream Transportation and Distribution).

4.1.1. Raw Material Acquisition & Processing (Category 1)

Based on the BOM data from Section 3.1:

Plastic Casing (ABS): 0.25 kg * 2.80 kgCO2e/kg = 0.700 kg CO2e

Printed Circuit Board (PCB): 1.00 unit * 0.80 kgCO2e/unit = 0.800 kg CO2e

Copper Wiring: 0.05 kg * 41.80 kgCO2e/kg = 2.090 kg CO2e

Silicon Microchips: 0.02 kg * 50.00 kgCO2e/kg = 1.000 kg CO2e

Aluminum Heatsink: 0.03 kg * 8.50 kgCO2e/kg = 0.255 kg CO2e

Cardboard Packaging: 0.04 kg * 0.71 kgCO2e/kg = 0.028 kg CO2e

Plastic Film Wrap (LDPE): 0.01 kg * 2.00 kgCO2e/kg = 0.020 kg CO2e

Subtotal Raw Materials (Scope 3, Category 1): 4.893 kg CO2e

4.1.2. Upstream Transportation of Raw Materials (Category 4)

Assuming raw materials (total 0.45 kg for product + 0.05 kg for packaging = 0.5 kg total) are transported 8,000 km by ocean freight to the factory in China.

Mass transported: 0.5 kg = 0.0005 tonnes

Distance: 8,000 km [cite: lnlevnpkgs]

Emission Factor (Ocean Freight): 0.010 kg CO2e/tonne-km

Calculation: 0.0005 tonnes * 8,000 km * 0.010 kg CO2e/tonne-km = 0.040 kg CO2e

Subtotal Upstream Transportation (Scope 3, Category 4): 0.040 kg CO2e

4.2. Scope 2: Purchased Electricity (Manufacturing Phase)

Manufacturing in China. Energy intensity: 15 kWh/unit. Renewable energy usage: 75%.

Total electricity consumed: 15 kWh/unit [cite: nmtgpjywso]

Renewable portion: 15 kWh * 0.75 = 11.25 kWh

Non-renewable portion: 15 kWh * 0.25 = 3.75 kWh

China Grid Emission Factor (non-renewable): 0.85 kg CO2e/kWh

Renewable Energy Emission Factor (upstream/negligible): 0.01 kg CO2e/kWh

Calculation:

Emissions from non-renewable electricity: 3.75 kWh * 0.85 kg CO2e/kWh = 3.188 kg CO2e

Emissions from renewable electricity: 11.25 kWh * 0.01 kg CO2e/kWh = 0.113 kg CO2e

Total Manufacturing Electricity (Scope 2): 3.301 kg CO2e

4.3. Scope 1: Direct Emissions (Manufacturing Phase)

For a typical electronics manufacturing plant, direct Scope 1 emissions (e.g., from burning fuel on-site, process emissions) are often relatively small compared to Scope 2 and 3, and are not explicitly provided in the parameters. For this high-detail analysis, we assume minor direct emissions associated with facility operation (e.g., heating, minor process gases not covered by energy EF).

Estimated Direct Emissions: 0.050 kg CO2e/unit (illustrative estimate).

Total Direct Emissions (Scope 1): 0.050 kg CO2e

4.4. Scope 3: Downstream Emissions (Value Chain - Distribution, Use, End-of-Life)

This covers Category 9 (Downstream Transportation and Distribution), Category 11 (Use of Sold Products), and Category 12 (End-of-Life Treatment of Sold Products).

4.4.1. Last-Mile Delivery (Category 9)

Assuming delivery from a European distribution center to the end-user.

Product mass (with packaging): 0.5 kg = 0.0005 tonnes

Last-Mile Delivery Distance: 50 km (typical for local courier)

Last-Mile Delivery Channel: Courier Service (Electric Van) [cite: Delivery Type]

Emission Factor (Electric Van): 0.005 kg CO2e/tonne-km (reflecting upstream electricity emissions for charging)

Calculation: 0.0005 tonnes * 50 km * 0.005 kg CO2e/tonne-km = 0.001 kg CO2e

Subtotal Last-Mile Delivery (Scope 3, Category 9): 0.001 kg CO2e

4.4.2. Use Phase Emissions (Category 11)

Product lifespan: 5 years. Energy consumption in use: 10 kWh/year. Assuming usage in Europe.

Total energy consumed over lifespan: 10 kWh/year * 5 years = 50 kWh [cite: iljtjrzrep, pufkwozttm]

Average European Grid Emission Factor: 0.25 kg CO2e/kWh

Calculation: 50 kWh * 0.25 kg CO2e/kWh = 12.500 kg CO2e

Subtotal Use Phase (Scope 3, Category 11): 12.500 kg CO2e

4.4.3. End-of-Life Treatment (Category 12)

Total product mass: 0.5 kg. Recyclability percentage: 60%. [cite: qsmrpmijxj] The company operates take-back programs, facilitating recycling. [cite: fdnzflkrmz]

Portion recycled: 0.5 kg * 0.60 = 0.30 kg

Portion landfilled: 0.5 kg * 0.40 = 0.20 kg

Emissions from Landfilling:

Landfilled mass: 0.20 kg

Emission Factor (Landfill, general waste): 0.400 kg CO2e/kg

Calculation: 0.20 kg * 0.400 kg CO2e/kg = 0.080 kg CO2e

Emissions from Recycling Process (estimated average for collection, sorting, reprocessing):

Recycled mass: 0.30 kg

Emission Factor (Recycling Process): 0.150 kg CO2e/kg (an estimated average, as plastic recycling alone can be 0.202 kgCO2e/kg.)

Calculation: 0.30 kg * 0.150 kg CO2e/kg = 0.045 kg CO2e

Avoided Emissions from Recycling:

Assuming the 60% recycled material displaces virgin production. For a mix of plastics, metals, and electronics, a general avoided emission factor for recycling can be complex. For simplicity, we use an aggregated avoided emissions factor, acknowledging higher savings for metals (e.g. 9 tonnes CO2/tonne for Aluminum, 1.5 tonnes CO2/tonne for steel).

Recycled mass: 0.30 kg

Estimated avoided emissions factor (average for mixed materials): -1.00 kg CO2e/kg (This is an illustrative average, reflecting that recycling avoids significant virgin material emissions, but processes still have some emissions.)

Calculation: 0.30 kg * (-1.00 kg CO2e/kg) = -0.300 kg CO2e

Net EoL Emissions: 0.080 kg CO2e (landfill) + 0.045 kg CO2e (recycling process) - 0.300 kg CO2e (avoided) = -0.175 kg CO2e

Subtotal End-of-Life (Scope 3, Category 12): -0.175 kg CO2e

Note: The negative value indicates a net carbon removal/avoidance due to successful recycling displacing virgin material production. The company\'s circular/take-back programs contribute positively to this outcome.
