Frequently Asked Questions

What is Florida's electricity emission factor?

Florida's EPA eGRID2023 electricity emission factor is 784.8 lb CO2e per MWh (0.3560 kg per kWh). This is 2% dirtier than the US national average.

How do I calculate Scope 2 emissions for a Florida facility?

Multiply the facility's annual kWh consumption by 0.3560 to get kg CO2e. Divide by 1,000 for metric tonnes. For facilities spanning multiple Florida subregions, use the emission factors API to get the exact factor by ZIP code.

How clean is Florida's electricity grid?

Florida's grid is 19% carbon-free and 7% renewable. At 785 lb CO2e/MWh, it is 2% dirtier than the US average of 770.9 lb/MWh.
