About TGHGc (charging emissions): TGHGc = 72 tCO₂ means the system's marginal generator during charging hours (10–13 CLT) was thermal some of the time. This is the expected conservative behavior of MADD — BESS charging raises demand, and if the marginal unit is CC/coal/gas, those emissions are induced. Average marginal EF during charge: 0.014 tCO₂/MWh. A higher value here pulls net RED down.
