Indiana's electricity grid has a CO2e emission factor of 916.1 lb/MWh (0.4155 kg/kWh) - 19% dirtier than the US average. The grid is 36% carbon-free and 8% renewable. These are the official EPA eGRID2023 values used for GHG Protocol Scope 2 location-based emissions reporting.
Indiana is entirely within the RFCW (RFC West) eGRID subregion.

Indiana's EPA eGRID2023 electricity emission factor is 916.1 lb CO2e per MWh (0.4155 kg per kWh). This is 19% dirtier than the US national average.
Multiply the facility's annual kWh consumption by 0.4155 to get kg CO2e. Divide by 1,000 for metric tonnes. For facilities spanning multiple Indiana subregions, use the emission factors API to get the exact factor by ZIP code.
Indiana's grid is 36% carbon-free and 8% renewable. At 916 lb CO2e/MWh, it is 19% dirtier than the US average of 770.9 lb/MWh.
