Which variables are related to this issue? This might be intended this way

remind/R/reportCrossVariables.R

Line 451 in 85a839e

setNames(tmp[,,"Emi|CO2|Buildings|Direct and Indirect (Mt CO2/yr)"] / output[,,"FE|Buildings|Fuels (EJ/yr)"], "FE|Buildings|Fossil Carbon Intensity of fuels (kg CO2/GJ)"),

Since FE|Transport|Fossil Carbon Intensity of fuels uses Emi|CO2|Transport|Demand and FE|Industry|Fossil Carbon Intensity of fuels uses Emi|CO2|Energy|Demand|Industry|Gross maybe FE|Buildings|Fossil Carbon Intensity of fuels should use Emi|CO2|Buildings|Direct? I might be wrong though

You ought to know ;)

But for "Carbon Intensity of fuels" I would expect that upstream emissions from electricity and heat are not included, since they are not fuels.
