Calculadora de Emisiones de Energía del Hogar — Fórmula
## How to Calculate Home Energy Emissions
Home energy emissions come from the fuels used to power and heat your home.
### Emission Factors
- **Electricity**: 0.92 lbs CO2/kWh (US grid average)
- **Natural Gas**: 11.7 lbs CO2/therm
- **Heating Oil**: 22.4 lbs CO2/gallon
- **Propane**: 12.7 lbs CO2/gallon
### Formula
**Total CO2 = Sum of (Usage * Emission Factor) for each fuel / 2,204.6**

Ejemplo Resuelto
A home using 900 kWh/month electricity, 40 therms/month gas, no oil or propane.
- Electricity: 900 * 12 * 0.92 = 9,936 lbs CO2
- Natural Gas: 40 * 12 * 11.7 = 5,616 lbs CO2
- Total: 15,552 lbs / 2,204.6 = 7.06 metric tons/year
