| General comment on data set | Good overall data quality. Energy carrier mix information based on official statistical information including import/export(not applicable). Detailed power plant models were used, which combine measured emissions plus calculated values for not measured emissions of e.g. organics or heavy metals. Energy carrier extraction and processing data is of sufficient to good (e.g. refinery) data quality. Inventory is partly based on primary industry data, partly on secondary literature data. |

| Technology description including background system | The Malaysian electricity consumption mix is provided by multiple energy carriers. The Malaysian specific mix is shown in the pie chart "Power Grid Mix - MY". The electricity is produced in energy carrier specific power plants. The Malaysia specific fuel supply (share of resources used by domestic supply) including the Malaysia specific energy carrier properties (e.g. element and energy contents) are accounted for. Furthermore Malaysian specific technology standards of power plants regarding efficiency, firing technology, flue-gas desulphurisation, NOx removal and dedusting are considered. The Malaysian electricity consumption mix is modelled as shown in the flow diagram "Modelling of Power Consumption Mix". It includes distribution losses (in %) and the own use by energy producers. The data set considers the whole supply chain of the fuels from exploration over extraction and preparation to transport of fuels to the power plants. The background system is addressed as follows: Transports: All relevant and known transport processes used are included. Overseas transports including rail and truck transport to and from major ports for imported bulk resources are included. Furthermore all relevant and known pipeline and / or tanker transport of gases and oil imports are included. Energy carriers: Coal, crude oil, natural gas and uranium are modelled according to the specific import situation. Refinery products: Diesel, gasoline, technical gases, fuel oils, basic oils and residues such as bitumen are modelled via a country-specific, refinery parameterized model. The refinery model represents the current national standard in refinery techniques (e.g. emission level, internal energy consumption,...) as well as the individual country-specific product output spectrum, which can be quite different from country to country. Hence the refinery products used show the individual country-specific use of resources. The supply of crude oil is modelled, again, according to the country-specific crude oil situation with the respective properties of the resources. |
