Description
The “Factors” tab appears in reports:
- GHG Inventory (export version)
- FRD24 (tenant-version)
It shows the emission factors in effect during the relevant report month range.
Columns:
- Emission Factor Type
AIR_TRAVEL_EMISSION_FACTOR
COAL_MINING_EMISSION_FACTOR
ELECTRICITY_EMISSION_FACTOR
GENERAL_EMISSION_FACTOR
GWP_EMISSION_FACTOR
PAPER_EMISSION_FACTOR
SCOPE_3_NATURAL_GAS_EMISSION_FACTOR
SOLID_LIQUID_GAS_EMISSION_FACTOR
STAFF_TRAVEL_EMISSION_FACTOR
SUPPLIER_EMISSION_FACTOR (future enhancement)
TAXI_TRAVEL_EMISSION_FACTOR
WASTE_EMISSION_FACTOR
WATER_EMISSION_FACTOR
- Emission Factor Sub Type (only for factor type = SOLID_LIQUID_GAS_EMISSION_FACTOR)
SOLID
LIQUID
GAS
TRANSPORT
- Activity Group Name
- Activity Name
- Activity Fuel Type
- Activity Unit
- Activity Scope
- Asset State (assets with location in this state will use the factor value(s) on this line) (If the activity’s calculator is not location specific, “ALL” will be displayed)
- Emission Factor Set (name of the relevant emission factor set)
- Factor Set Effective From (the first month when the emission factor set will be used in calculations for the activity)
- Factor Set Effective To (the last month – if specified – when the emission factor set will be used in calculations for the activity)
- Lookup1, Lookup2, Lookup3
Different activities and calculators require different lookups to select which emission factor value to use. “Lookups” may include fuel type, scope, unit and state
- Lookup1Value, Lookup2Value, Lookup3Value
The value for the lookup pair (e.g. pair Lookup1, Lookup1Value)
- Factor1, Factor2, …, Factor13
Once the emission factor has been identified via lookups, there may be a number of factor components that have to be applied in emission calculations.
Some activity calculations like GWP only have a single factor value, however others have more (staff travel has thirteen)
- Factor1Value, Factor2Value, …, Factor13Value
The value for the factor pair (e.g. pair Factor1, Factor1Value)
