I built a quick web tool to compare home heating emissions for different heat sources.

www.cwmenergy.ca

Home Heating Emissions Calculator — CWM Energy

I put this together to help me understand how fluctuating emissions from the electrical grid and outdoor temperature impact the environmental performance of a heat pump compared to a natural gas furnace.

Would love feedback!

You might want to check the weather API you're using, as it was returning wildly inaccurate results for Melbourne,Australia (12C instead of 23C currently).
Edit: looks like it's returning the results for Melbourne, Florida, so I guess you need to make sure you include the country
- I'll make country a mandatory field. Thanks!
  
  I had entered the country, it just wasn't sent to the weather API or something.
  
  Gotcha - I'll try and chase the issue down.
