Greenhouse Gases

For CO2 conversion, the fixed value is the 2007 receiving end coefficient of the Japan Auto Parts Industries Association (JAPIA). Calculations of HFCs, SF6 and CO2 employ global warming figures prescribed by the Law Concerning the Promotion of Measures to Cope with Global Warming enforcement regulations.
