Interestingly, you don't give a source for Germany, which according to this source has much lower emissions per kWh these last days: https://www.agora-energiew

Interestingly, you don't give a source for Germany, which according to this source has much lower emissions per kWh these last days:
https://www.agora-energiewende.de/daten-tools/agorameter/chart/today/power_emission/10.11.2023/13.11.2023/hourly https://www.agora-energiewende.de/daten-tools/agorameter/cha...
And even this source is a bit dubious, as there's no clear correlation between the amount of coal and gas and the emissions. Presumably they also count imported energy.
- adev_ 3y agoThe sources are the same [1]. You can see the instant consumption today at 653g/kwh [2] and normalized over a month here 416g/kwh [3]. Values are also aligned with what other specialized sources estimate [4] You can also extract similar numbers on the site of European Union itself [5] Wierdly I have more doubts about the partiality of the data of your source. Specially when tags itself as "EnergyWiende" in the title. > Presumably they also count imported energy. It does not. These number account only for production. Germany numbers considering consumption are generally better because most of its neighbours have cleaner electricity production than Germany (excepted Poland).
