What is tCo2Eq?

Answer 1

tCO2e stands for "Tonnes of CO2 equivalent" (similarly kgCO2e stands for "kilogram of CO2 equivalent"). It is a measure for describing how much global warming a given type and amount of greenhouse gas may cause, using the functionally equivalent amount or concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) as the reference. For example, methane is a greenhouse gas that has a stronger effect on climate change than CO2. To be able to compare it with the effect of CO2, it is converted into CO2e. Like this, it is possible to say that that 1t of methane has the same effect on climate change as 25t of CO2. You find more details here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide_equivalent

Answer 2

tCO2eq stands for metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent. It is a unit of measurement used to compare the emissions of various greenhouse gases based on their global warming potential over a specific timeframe, usually 100 years. This allows for a standardized way to assess the impact of different gases on climate change.

Answer 3

tCO2eq is a unit of measure of atmospheric pollution. One tCO2eq is equivalent to one tonne (1000 kilograms) of carbon dioxide.
