How are these values calculated?
Electric vehicle
Value calculated for a charge of 4.5 kWh (2,259 g), equals 30km on an EV with a consumption of 15 kWh/100km
Washing machine
Complete wash is 0.7 kWh, calculated on full load at 40º on a A efficient equipment
Air conditioning
One hour of use is 1.5 kWh, calculated on a equipment A efficient of 9000BTU, temperature 22º
Laptop
One hour of use is 30 Wh, calculated on a laptop with moderate use (internet browsing, email, etc)
