Biograce-II: GHG calculation tool for electricity, heating and cooling products

The project BioGrace-II seeks to harmonise calculations of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for electricity, heating and cooling from biomass. To this end, it will contribute to EU policies and priorities by facilitating the formulation of sustainability criteria for solid and gaseous biomass.

The Public version 2 of the BioGrace-II GHG calculation tool has now been completed and is available in BioGrace website.

This calculation tool features:

A list of standard values
An Excel tool that
- Shows how the default values in the 2014 report were calculated
- Allows stakeholders to make calculations themselves
A user manual
Detailed calculation rules
A methodological background document
