CARBON REDUCTION CALCULATOR
Use this Carbon Reduction Calculator to estimate Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emission reductions from using biodiesel.
Enter the total litres of diesel used:
  litres
Enter a Biodiesel blend (eg. 20% = B20):
  %
Enter a Price per Tonne for CO2 credits (eg.$10):
$
Click Calculate to estimate GHG reductions:

 


RESULTS
GHG Emissions with Diesel:
   tonnes CO2e
GHG Emissions with Biodiesel blend:
   tonnes CO2e
GHG Emissions Reduction:
   tonnes CO2e
Equal to annual exhaust CO2 from:
   Turbo Diesel SUVs
Total Value of CO2 Credits:
   dollars

Note: Emissions are lifecycle CO2 equivalent using Canola as the feedstock for biodiesel.
Disclaimer: Calculator results are estimates, using assumptions from Natural Resources Canada’s GHGenius model and EnerGuide.

DETAILED CALCULATOR
