Aggregating both effects provides the actual emission changes. Fuel combustion intensity describes the effect resulting from a change in the amount of fuel used in public power plants. Fossil fuel combustion intensity describes the effect resulting from a change in the amount of fossil fuels used in public power plants (e.g. increased use of biomass). Carbon intensity describes the effect resulting from a change to less carbon intensive fossil fuels in public power plants (e.g. shift from coal to oil or gas).
