4. Emission Calculations (Activity * Emission Factor = CO2e)

4.1 Raw Material Acquisition & Processing (Scope 3)

Emissions from raw materials are calculated based on the provided BOM and respective emission factors (cradle-to-gate).

Total Raw Material Emissions: 9.900 kgCO2e

4.2 Manufacturing (Production in China)

Production emissions are primarily driven by energy consumption at the manufacturing facility in China.

Energy Consumption: 10 kWh/unit

Non-renewable energy (50%): 5 kWh * 0.589 kgCO2e/kWh (China grid EF) = 2.945 kgCO2e

Renewable energy (50%): 5 kWh * 0.02 kgCO2e/kWh (residual EF) = 0.100 kgCO2e

Direct Process Emissions (estimated): 0.050 kgCO2e (e.g., fugitive emissions, minor chemical processes not covered by material EFs).

Total Manufacturing Emissions: 2.945 + 0.100 + 0.050 = 3.095 kgCO2e

4.3 Transportation & Distribution (Scope 3)

Transportation emissions are calculated for various stages of the supply chain.

Upstream Transport (Components to China Factory - Road HGV): 0.5 kg * 500 km * (0.10 kgCO2e/tkm / 1000) = 0.025 kgCO2e

Finished Product Transport (China to Europe - Ocean Freight): 0.5 kg * 20,000 km * (0.016 kgCO2e/tkm / 1000) = 0.160 kgCO2e

Finished Product Transport (Europe Distribution - Road HGV): 0.5 kg * 500 km * (0.10 kgCO2e/tkm / 1000) = 0.025 kgCO2e

Last-Mile Delivery (Van Delivery): 0.5 kg * 50 km * (0.20 kgCO2e/tkm / 1000) = 0.005 kgCO2e

Total Transportation Emissions: 0.025 + 0.160 + 0.025 + 0.005 = 0.215 kgCO2e

4.4 Use Phase (Scope 3)

The use phase emissions are calculated based on the product\'s energy consumption over its lifespan.

Total Energy Consumption: 20 kWh/year * 5 years = 100 kWh

Total Use Phase Emissions: 25.000 kgCO2e

4.5 End-of-Life (EoL) (Scope 3 - with LSR Removals)

EoL emissions consider disposal and recycling benefits, incorporating the Land Sector and Removals (LSR) Standard for carbon removals.

Effective Recyclability: 85% (80% standard recyclability + 5% from circular programs)

Amount Disposed (15%): 0.5 kg * 0.15 = 0.075 kg

Disposal Emissions: 0.075 kg * 0.5 kgCO2e/kg (landfill EF) = 0.0375 kgCO2e

Recycling Credits (avoided virgin material production): (0.85 * 9.900 kgCO2e) * 0.5 (avoidance factor) = -4.2075 kgCO2e

Net End-of-Life Impact: 0.0375 - 4.2075 = -4.170 kgCO2e (Represents a net removal/avoidance due to recycling)
