electricity emissions data for India #54

Open sichen1234 opened 3 years ago

sichen1234 commented 3 years ago

The best source seems to be https://www.iea.org/countries/india

It has the mix of energy sources (coal, natural gas, renewables, etc.) and total MtCO2e of emissions generated. The data is available every 5 years for the whole country of India, the last year being 2018.

An excellent data source is available from the Central Electrical Authority of India at https://cea.nic.in/cdm-co2-baseline-database/?lang=en

It was developed for calculating the emissions impact of renewables development as part of the CDM.

The next step is to load the utility emissions data for India similar to how the US and European emissions data are loaded. See https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/blockchain-carbon-accounting/tree/main/utility-emissions-channel#seeding-the-fabric-database

Hi @sichen1234 i would like to contribute to this idea if you are not working on it

sichen1234 commented 3 years ago

That would be great. Please take a look at what we've started with https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/blockchain-carbon-accounting/tree/main/utility-emissions-channel#seeding-the-fabric-database

We're loading these for the US and European countries. The data is available now for India so you can follow a similar way to do it.

Sure sir

@rajpratyush How are you doing with this one? Do you have any questions?

rajpratyush commented 3 years ago

currently learning andgaining basic ideas of blockchain and hyperledger fabric .

could you please point me to some resources to gain a better insight before i begin the work

sichen1234 commented 3 years ago

Try the hyperledger fabric tutorials, and then see if you could install the utility emissions channel using the README
