Our contribution for Oil, Gas and electricity supply:
As part of our long-term-partnership with Carbon Minds, we regularly provide updates for datasets related to and representing oil and natural gas supply in various countries and world regions. In database versions prior to V2.03 (2026), electricity modelling in the Carbon Minds database relied on datasets from the ecoinvent database. With the V2.03 (2026) update, the ecoinvent datasets have been replaced with consistent and more recent electricity datasets developed by ESU-services.
