Notes:
1 Emissions from direct energy use and synthetic gases measured in tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO2e). Emissions based upon conversion factors from the
Clean Energy Regulator's Emissions and Energy Reporting System (2015).
2 Used for arc suppression in network equipment, SF6 has a high global warming potential.
3 The transmitting of electricity over long distances, from Ausgrid’s substations to its customers, generates heat and therefore uses energy, known as network losses.
Energy losses from the delivery of electricity to customers are an inherent part of electricity distribution.
