The Main Summary of this Statistics are as Follows:
The following are the summary of the CO2 emissions evaluated for Indian railways freight movement during
2010-11:
1. CO2 emissions per Net-Tonne-km for diesel locomotive = 0.00951 grams.
2. CO2 emissions per Net-Tonne-km for electric locomotive = 0.01146 grams.
3. CO2 emissions per Net-Tonne-km for mixed goods train = 0.01072 grams.
• If the total goods were carried by diesel locomotives, the CO2 emissions would be =
2209.73/0.371 = 5956.15 Tonnes.
• If the total goods were carried by electric locomotives, the CO2 emissions would be =
4503.22/0.627 = 7182.17 Tonnes.
