Estimating the term…
A CO2 emission estimation system includes a CO2 emission estimator. The CO2 emission estimator calculates an estimated value of CO2 emissions from an image forming apparatus when performing a job, using a CO2 emission estimation model as a formula for estimating the CO2 emissions and settings for the job. The CO2 emission estimation model is a formula where a multiple regression expression for determining an estimated value of a power consumption of the image forming apparatus when performing the job is multiplied by a CO2 emission factor. The CO2 emission estimation model has a plurality of explanatory variables each according to a different type of setting for the job.
A CO2 emission estimation system comprising a controller that includes a processor and functions, through the processor executing a CO2 emission estimation program, as a CO2 emission estimator that calculates an estimated value of CO2 emissions from an image forming apparatus when performing a job, using a CO2 emission estimation model as a formula for estimating the CO2 emissions and settings for the job,
