gCO2e/kWh en France

See original GitHub issue

@supertanuki j’ai un doute sur la variable carbonIntensityFactorIngCO2PerKWh

https://github.com/supertanuki/Carbonalyser/blob/809d43f05a10241d27374f6548528ff15df38bb2/popup/popup.js#L14

D’où vient ce chiffre ? J’ai l’impression que c’est une grosse sous-estimation de l’impact du kWh en France.

A l’heure où j’écris ces lignes, dans le premier froid automnal, on est à 124g d’après electricitymap.org.

D’après wikipedia,

Les émissions unitaires de CO2 pour la production d'électricité sont évaluées à 79 g de CO2 par kWh en 2010 contre 347 g pour l'Union européenne à 27

J’ai peut-être loupé un facteur quelque part 😅

Bonjour @laem Je t’avouerai que je n’ai pas été chercher les chiffres. C’est le Shift Project qui m’a tout fourni. Heureux que tu arrives à recouper ces chiffres.

Le chiffre est un peu plus faible que ceux annoncés par l’EEA https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/daviz/co2-emission-intensity-9#tab-googlechartid_googlechartid_googlechartid_chart_1111
