T-4B1a-A-8 - Commercial buildings heated with liquefied petrol gas (LPG)

Definition

This emission source is defined by the IPCC in TBD.

Transition Elements

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

• 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

Activity Model

This emission source is modelled with Combustion as:
