What''s the carbon footprint of a wind turbine?

This chart shows how much carbon dioxide, per kilowatt-hour of electricity generated, can be attributed to a wind turbine during its life from cradle to grave. If you''re wondering about those awkward-sounding "grams of carbon

Comprehensive comparison of multiple renewable power generation methods

According to the relevant literature [53], the energy consumption and emissions per unit power generation of the 300 MW thermal power generating unit are shown in Table 7.

CO₂ emissions by fuel

Carbon dioxide emissions associated with energy and industrial production can come from a range of fuel types. The contribution of each of these sources has changed significantly through time and still shows large differences by region.
