It has been developed by EVEA to assist them in better understanding the greenhouse gas (GHG) balance of existing or emerging anaerobic digestion and co-digestion projects.

The tool also incorporates: an estimation of carbon storage by energy crops, an energy balance, a nitrogen flux balance, and additional indicators considering circular economy and biodiversity issues.

The calculator comes with a user guide and a user form that provide instructions on how to use the tool. It also summarizes input data. A methodological guide outlines the calculation methods for GHG fluxes, default values for consumptions and yields, considered substrates, their composition data, and emission factors.
