Another useful tool is the Greenfoot spreadsheet tool. It allows you to compare a baseline & proposed case with carbon content based on state profiles. It can downloaded at the following address:

Maria - an accurate estimate of carbon emissions is not just a factor of on-site energy usage, but also the source production. So it depends a lot on the fuel mix for your power provider. The EPA has a power profiler tool that should help you with this:
