Under the hourly 24/7 standard, Google’s global 2023 electricity emissions factor is 212 gCO2e/kWh vs. 135 gCO2e/kWh under standard MB accounting. We recommend that the AI community adopt this more accurate accounting standard for calculating the emissions associated with AI electricity consumption
