How much CO2 will be produced for every kwh?

On average, about 0.45 kg of CO2 is produced for every kilowatt-hour (kWh) of electricity generated in the United States. However, this value can vary depending on the fuel source used for electricity generation.


How is Co2 reduction accomplished by your solar panels comparable to other types of saving energy?

Solar panels save CO if you accept that electricity generation normally produces CO2 when the fuel is burnt. 1 kWh of electric energy results in about 1 kg of CO2 from a conventional power plant, so if that 1 kWh were generated by solar, that saves 1 kg of CO2. 1 kWh generated by a wind turbine also saves 1 kg of CO2. In this equation you also have to consider any CO2 emitted at the factories that make the solar panels etc., but this is not very much.


How many joules is 1 kWh equal to?

How many kwh is mwh?

1 mwh = 1000 kwh hence 4 mwh = 4000 kwh


If 1 kwh of power saved then how many carbon credit will be earned?

1000 Kilowatt per year = 520Kg CO22000 kilowatts approximate = 1 tonne CO2 = 1 Carbon Credit


How many tons of CO2 for 1MW of energy?

The amount of CO2 emitted per 1 MW of energy generated depends on the source of the energy. On average, coal power plants emit about 1 ton of CO2 per 1 MWh, while natural gas power plants emit about 0.5 tons of CO2 per 1 MWh. Renewable energy sources like wind and solar do not emit any CO2 during electricity generation.


How much CO2 does a train emmit?

18 & 1/2 tons per second. All in all there's about 2875640 Billion tons of co2 emitted everyday.


1 ton of paper produces how many metric tons of CO2?

1 ton of paper may produce a little CO2, but it would be measured in terms of a few grammes rather than tonnes. The paper's creation or burning may produce significantly more, but that's not what you asked about.


How many watts are in a kwh?

How many kWH in a PJ?

There are 277.778 kilowatt-hours (kWh) in one petajoule (PJ).


How much CO2 is produced from burning coal?

Taking coal to contain 50 percent carbon, which combines with oxygen during burning to form CO2, we can arrive at 1.83 kg CO2 for every 1 kg of coal burned. Another way to put it, taking the efficiency of power stations into account, is that 950 grams of CO2 is evolved for every KWh of electricity produced. Note that for natural gas it is more like 600 g per KWh for natural gas powered plants.
