Description

The Global Logistics Emissions Council (GLEC) Framework provides globally recognised emission factors for freight transportation. It covers road, rail, air, sea, and inland waterways, aiming to harmonise carbon accounting methodologies in logistics and supply chain management. The framework aligns with GHG Protocol, ISO 14083, and other global standards to ensure consistency in emissions reporting.

Metadata

Data Type: Activity-based
Publisher Type: Non-profit Organisation
Number of Factors: 2,000

When to use

This set of factors should be used by companies in the logistics industry to measure emissions. The set also includes emission factors relating to logistics hubs.

Limitations

Only for the transport and logistics sector. For carbon accounting outside the transport sector, public databases managed by government bodies are commonly used (e.g. EPA, BEIS/DEFRA, Base Empreinte).
