Ecospold 2 exchange, ID = 4bc66efe-f91b-48e5-9a26-07e383d47e80; Fuel consumption data extrapolated from the original dataset covering the South African region. Corrected to account for 12% biodiesel blend accordind to fuels energy content. For conventional diesel, it was considered energy content of 129.500 Btu/gal, for animal-based biodiesel 115.720 Btu/gal and for plant-based biodiesel 119.216 Btu/gal (USEPA, 2002). Final value is influenced by the updated freight load factor form EPE (2020).
