1Calculation factorsEuropean Union, use by residents, 1 year
The use of AI by the 450.6 million inhabitants of the 27 countries over one year. Projet Celsius estimate.
- "Free personal use, 1 year" accounts for 38% of emissions in this scenario.
- Moderate use: 13 ktCO2e; intensive: 360 ktCO2e, with the other settings unchanged.
- Out of scope: the AI services of organisations, uses through programming interfaces, those under 12, server manufacturing and model training.
Sentence to citeEuropean Union, residents' use, 1 year, Projet Celsius estimate: 77 ktCO2e per territory and per year, for 170 GWh of electricity, servers worldwide (458 gCO2e/kWh).
How the calculation is built
Excluding the AI services of organisations, programming interfaces and model training. It counts personal use by age, studies and work by occupation, with European user shares, lower than in France. Eurostat headcounts and shares, 2024 and 2025.

Scope of the figure used. Text classification, average of the open models tested: 0.002 kWh for 1,000 inferences
Limit. Models of 2023, measured on a node of 8 A100 GPUs

Microsoft Research · 2026
Estimation de l'énergie des requêtes en production (Joule) ↗ (new tab)
Role and limits
Author. Microsoft Research, Oviedo et al.
What the publication covers. H100 nodes, production
Reading by the database. Calibrated on production
Reference of the selected value
Scope of the figure used. Median, 500 tokens read and 300 written, H100 nodes
Limit. Not a measurement, but calibrated on production; judges public estimates to be 4 to 20 times too high
ML.ENERGY · February 2026
Role and limits
Author. Chung et al., University of Michigan
What the publication covers. GPU energy per token, per response, per image, in steady state, according to the number of requests served at once
What it does not cover. processors, host memory, data centre cooling, manufacturing
Reading by the database. The best open benchmark: it serves to compare model sizes with each other, not as a production value
Support for the "Small model" setting
Scope of the figure used. A model of about 8 billion active parameters, like Llama 3.1 8B: about 6 times less electricity per token than the medium model, according to the ML.ENERGY benchmark.
Limit. The setting is a convention of the database supported by this publication.
Reference of the variant "Small model, about 8 billion parameters"
Scope of the figure used. Llama 3.1 8B, one H100 GPU, 64 requests at a time, GPU only, per 1,000 tokens written, reading of the question included
Limit. GPU only, on a benchmark: the database keeps only the ratio to the 70 billion model, 1 to 6.7
The measurement covers a different scope; it is not a direct measurement of this entry.

Watershed · Aug. 2026
Estimating GHG Emissions from AI Use: Framework for Corporate-Level Measurement ↗ (new tab)
Role and limits
Author. Bistline, Ulissi, Davis, Glidden, Joyce, Li, Mohsenin and Suh (Watershed)
What the publication covers. factors per 1,000 tokens read and written at the server before PUE (host and standby machines included), PUE separate (1.10 for a large operator, 1.56 for an unknown operator)
What it does not cover. clean measurements, the model and the hardware
Reading by the database. Default factors proposed for review (public data as of June 2026); for a large operator, taken from Google's measurement published in 2025 (Elsworth et al.), which already contains the data centre overhead; constant per token, they underestimate long contexts and agents according to the authors
Reference for the variant "Medium model, Watershed default factor"
Scope of the figure used. Default factor for 1,000 tokens read, medium model, large operator, at the server before PUE (Watershed table 2, public data as of June 2026)
Limit. A default value that Watershed derives from Google's measurement (0.24 Wh for the median text query of the Gemini app), with about 500 tokens per query and a written token costing 3 times a read token; Watershed does not give the split between read and written tokens. The 0.24 Wh already include the overhead of Google's data centre (0.02 Wh, 8%): with 375 tokens read and 125 written, the simplest reading, the factor contains it, and the PUE of 1.10 applied afterwards counts it a second time (about 9%). Values proposed for review, final at the next version of the framework
Reference for the variant "Medium model, Watershed default factor"
Scope of the figure used. Default factor for 1,000 tokens written, medium model, large operator, at the server before PUE (Watershed table 2, public data as of June 2026)
Limit. 3 times the reading factor, based on the ratio between writing and reading selected by Watershed (Patel et al., Splitwise, 2024). Same derivation and same caveat as for reading: Google's 0.24 Wh already include about 8% of data centre. Values proposed for review, final at the next version of the framework

Reference factor: Medium model, Watershed default factor
Scope of the figure used. Default factor for 1,000 tokens read, medium model, large operator, at the server before PUE (Watershed table 2, public data as of June 2026)
Limit. This measurement concerns the reference variant, not a measurement of "Small model, about 8 billion parameters". A default value that Watershed derives from Google's measurement (0.24 Wh for the median text query of the Gemini app), with about 500 tokens per query and a written token costing 3 times a read token; Watershed does not give the split between read and written. The 0.24 Wh already include the overhead of Google's data centre (0.02 Wh, 8%): with 375 tokens read and 125 written, on the simplest reading, the factor contains it, and the PUE of 1.10 applied afterwards counts it a second time (about 9%). Values proposed for review, to be finalised in the next version of the framework
