T-4B1a-A-2 - Commercial buildings heated with coal

Definition

This emission source is defined by the IPCC in TBD.

Transition Elements

This activity has the following mitigation methods modelled as transition elements:

• T-4B1a-A-2 - Commercial buildings heated with coal
• T-4B1a-TE-1 - Shift to district heating in commercial buildings
• T-4B1a-TE-3 - Shift to heat pumps in commerical buildings
• T-4B1a-TE-4 - Shift to biofuel in commercial buildings
• T-4B1a-TE-5 - Shift to solar thermal in commercial buildings
• T-4B1a-TE-6 - Retrofitting commerical buildings for efficient heating
