Division Calculation method

The fuel baseline standard is calculated based on Union average fossil fuel consumption of petrol, diesel, gasoil, LPG and CNG, as follows:

$$\mathrm{Fuel\; baseline\; standard}=\frac{\sum _x\left({\mathrm{GHGi}}_x\times {\mathrm{MJ}}_x\right)}{\sum _x{\mathrm{MJ}}_x}$$

where:

• ‘x’ represents the different fuels and energy falling within the scope of this Directive and as defined in the table below;

• ‘GHGi_x’ is the greenhouse gas intensity of the annual supply sold on the market of fuel ‘x’ or energy falling within the scope of this Directive expressed in gCO_2eq/MJ. The values for fossil fuels presented in point 5 of Part 2 of Annex I are used;

• ‘MJ_x’ is the total energy supplied and converted from reported volumes of fuel ‘x’ expressed in mega joules.

Consumption data

The consumption data used for calculation of the value is as follows:
