CO2 intensity in electricity delivered to Swiss end-users. Summary report

In this short summary report published by TEP Energy GmbH in Zuerich the main findings of a study made for the Swiss gas and oil industries on the effective CO2 intensities involved in Swiss electricity consumption are presented and discussed. The authors present their ideas on how CO2 emissions should be calculated on the basis of figures on Swiss power generation, imports and exports in a European context. The results obtained from the use of three methods for viewing Swiss electricity consumption involving net and gross power export and import are briefly discussed
