CO2 equivalent
10,440 kg CO2e
Charge mass
5 kg
GWP
2,088
Tonnes CO2e
10.44 t CO2e
Formula and working
CO2e (kg) = charge mass (kg) × GWP
- 1
Collect the inputs
Refrigerant charge = 5 kg; GWP (100-yr) = 2,088
- 2
Apply the formula
CO2e (kg) = charge mass (kg) × GWP
- 3
Result
CO2 equivalent = 10,440 kg CO2e
