Feedstock Carbon Intensity Calculator (FD-CIC) Users’ Manual and Technical Documentation

A transparent and easy-to-use tool for feedstock-specific, farm-level CI calculation of feedstocks is helpful. With the ARPA-E support, we have developed a tool–the Feedstock Carbon Intensity Calculator (FD-CIC). The first version of FD-CIC was released with the GREET® model in 2020 (Wang et al., 2020) so that corn feedstock producers could use this publicly available tool (https://greet.es.anl.gov/tool_fd_cic) to quantify corn grain CIs with farm-level input data and management practices. In the 2021 version, we expand the tool’s capabilities by including additional feedstocks such as soybeans, sorghum, and rice. Similar to corn, it calculates the farm-level CI for these feedstocks by allowing user-defined farm-level farming inputs and incorporating the GHG emission intensities of these inputs from GREET (in particular, GREET1, the fuel cycle model of GREET).
