Taxi / Cab Fleet Emissions Calculator

Annual fleet CO₂e from vehicles, distance and fuel economy — with electric-fleet comparison.

CNG taxis halved urban PM but still emit ~2.75 kg CO₂e/kg of fuel — at taxi mileage the EV switch saves both carbon and running cost. The calculator turns fleet size × distance × economy into Scope 1 tonnes, and shows the same kilometres charged on the grid for the EV business case.

Scope 1 mobile combustion: litres × 2.75 kg CO₂e/L. The EV line charges the same kilometres on the India (CEA avg) grid — even on a coal-heavy grid the EV usually wins because motors are 3–4× more efficient than engines.

About Taxi / Cab Fleet Emissions Calculator

CNG taxis halved urban PM but still emit ~2.75 kg CO₂e/kg of fuel — at taxi mileage the EV switch saves both carbon and running cost. The calculator turns fleet size × distance × economy into Scope 1 tonnes, and shows the same kilometres charged on the grid for the EV business case.

How to use Taxi / Cab Fleet Emissions Calculator

  1. 1Enter vehicle count, monthly distance and real fuel economy.
  2. 2Read annual fleet tCO₂e and the per-km intensity.
  3. 3Compare the EV line to see electrification's carbon case.

Why use Taxi / Cab Fleet Emissions Calculator?

  • Fleet math from data every operator already has: vehicles, km, economy
  • Per-vehicle and per-km intensity for honest benchmarking
  • EV comparison row charged on your actual grid
  • Fuel-type-correct factors (diesel, petrol, CNG)

Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate my vehicle fleet's carbon footprint?+

Litres burned × fuel factor: (vehicles × km ÷ km/L) × 2.68 kg/L for diesel. Fuel-card data beats odometer estimates where you have it. This is GHG Protocol Scope 1 mobile combustion — the table every fleet ESG request wants filled.

Are EVs really cleaner on a coal-heavy grid?+

Almost always: motors convert energy 3–4× more efficiently than engines, so even India's 0.716 kg/kWh grid yields ~40–60% lower per-km emissions for cars and LCVs — and the gap widens every year the grid greens. The EV row computes your duty's exact comparison.

What's a good gCO₂e/km for a fleet?+

Diesel cars 140–180; vans 200–300; trucks 700–900; CNG taxis ~120–140; electric cars on the Indian grid 80–110 (falling). Per-km intensity normalizes fleet size so this year's number can honestly meet next year's — the trend is the management story.

Should I include employee-owned vehicles used for work?+

Grey-fleet kilometres belong in Scope 3 (business travel), not Scope 1 — but they're often material and surprisingly large. Track reimbursed km × a per-km factor; the commute and travel tools on this site cover those adjacent inventories.
