Introduction\n\nThis project aims to provide a free, open-source, and transparent visualisation of the carbon intensity of electricity consumption around the world.\n\nWe fetch the raw production data from public, free, and official sources. They include official government and transmission system operators' data. We then run [our flow-tracing algorithm](https://www.electricitymaps.com/blog/flow-tracing) to calculate the actual carbon intensity of a country's electricity consumption.\n\n_Try it out at [app.electricitymaps.com](https://app.electricitymaps.com), or download the app on [Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tmrow.electricitymap\u0026utm_source=github) or [App store](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/electricity-map/id1224594248\u0026utm_source=github)._\n\n## Contributing\n\nThe Electricity Maps app is a community project and we welcome contributions from anyone!\n\nWe are always looking for help to build parsers for new countries, fix broken parsers, improve the frontend app, improve accuracy of data sources, discuss new potential data sources, update region capacities, and much more.\n\nRead our [contribution guidelines](/CONTRIBUTING.md) to get started.\n\n## Community \u0026 Support\n\nUse these channels to be part of the community, ask for help while using Electricity Maps, or just learn more about what's going on:\n\n- [GitHub Issues](https://github.com/electricitymaps/electricitymaps-contrib/issues): Raise any issues you encounter with the data or bugs you find while using the app.\n- [GitHub Discussions](https://github.com/electricitymaps/electricitymaps-contrib/discussions): Join discussions and share new ideas for features.\n- [GitHub Wiki](https://github.com/electricitymaps/electricitymaps-contrib/wiki): Learn more about methodology, guides for how to set up development environment, etc.\n- [FAQ](https://app.electricitymaps.com/FAQ): Get your questions answered in our FAQ.\n- [Our Commercial Website](https://electricitymaps.com/): Learn more about how you or your company can use the data too.\n- [Our Blog](https://electricitymaps.com/blog/): Read about the green transition and how Electricity Maps is helping to accelerate it.\n- [Twitter](https://twitter.com/electricitymaps): Follow for latest news\n- [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/electricitymaps): Follow for latest news\n\n## License\n\nThis repository is licensed under GNU-AGPLv3 since v1.5.0, find our license [here](https://github.com/electricitymaps/electricitymaps-contrib/blob/master/LICENSE.md).

You can check them out [here](https://github.com/electricityMaps/electricitymaps-contrib/blob/master/DATA_SOURCES.md)\n\n**Why do you calculate the carbon intensity of _consumption_?**\nIn short, citizens should not be responsible for the emissions associated with all the products they export, but only for what they consume.\nConsumption-based accounting (CBA) is a very important aspect of climate policy and allows assigning responsibility to consumers instead of producers.\nFurthermore, this method is robust to governments relocating dirty production to neighboring countries in order to green their image while still importing from it.\nYou can read more in our blog post [here](https://electricitymaps.com/blog/flow-tracing/).\n\n**Why don't you show emissions per capita?**\nA country that has few inhabitants but a lot of factories will appear high on CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c/sub\u003e/capita.\nThis means you can \"trick\" the numbers by moving your factory abroad and import the produced _good_ instead of the electricity itself.\nThat country now has a low CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c/sub\u003e/capita number because we only count CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c/sub\u003e for electricity (not for imported/exported goods).\nThe CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c/sub\u003e/capita metric, by involving the size of the population, and by not integrating all CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c/sub\u003e emission sources, is thus an incomplete metric.\nCO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c/sub\u003e intensity on the other hand only describes where is the best place to put that factory (and when it is best to use electricity), enabling proper decisions.\n\n**CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c/sub\u003e emission factors look high — what do they cover exactly?**\nThe carbon intensity of each type of power plant takes into account emissions arising from the whole life cycle of the plant (construction, fuel production, operational emissions and decommissioning). Read more on the [Emissions Factor Wiki page](https://github.com/electricitymaps/electricitymaps-contrib/wiki/Emission-factors).\n\n**How can I get access to historical data or the live API?**\nAll this and more can be found **[here](https://electricitymaps.com/)**.\nYou can also visit our **[data portal](https://www.electricitymaps.com/data-portal)** to download historical datasets.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Felectricitymaps%2Felectricitymaps-contrib","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Felectricitymaps%2Felectricitymaps-contrib","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Felectricitymaps%2Felectricitymaps-contrib/lists"}
