On the left is shown an example of a Mix well used for the petroleum pathways. That mix is defining the Crude Oil average for use in US refineries.

Almost all the US Refineries are using that Mix as for input. | On the left is shown an example of a Mix well used for the petroleum pathways.

Understand Mixes
The concept of Mix is really important in GREET.net, it's is the tool which are going to be used to aggregate results from multiple pathways together. The word "mix" was taken from the different Electricity mixes available in GREET. By nature a Mix is a set of pathways, and a set of shares. After calculations a mix contains an average results calculated from the pathways results and the shares assigned to them.
