Software

• Upgrade of the Energy breakdown form. In this version the energy consumption (and GHG emissions) of all primary fuels (incl. FAME, ETBE) are calculated, and the results are further broken down based on fuel’s origin (fossil or bio).
• The syntax of the command line version of Copert (CLI) has slightly changed. The user’s command must include the following:
  [PATH_TO_COPERT]
-i [PATH_TO_IMPORT]
-oC [PATH_TO_CONVERT_FILE]
-oEF [PATH_TO_EMISSIONS_EXPORT]
