Emission Factors

Description

The Emission Factors report lists all emission factors from all available emission factor sets, group by emission factor type and sub-type.

It can be accessed under Reports > All Reports … > Registers > Emission Factors

A separate tab is provided for each of the factor types (and sub-type, if applicable):

• AirTravel (AIR_TRAVEL_EMISSION_FACTOR)
• CoalMining (COAL_MINING_EMISSION_FACTOR)
• Electricity (ELECTRICITY_EMISSION_FACTOR)
• General (GENERAL_EMISSION_FACTOR)
• GWP (GWP_EMISSION_FACTOR)
• Paper (PAPER_EMISSION_FACTOR)
• Scope3NaturalGas (SCOPE_3_NATURAL_GAS_EMISSION_FACTOR)
• Solid (SOLID_LIQUID_GAS_EMISSION_FACTOR; sub-type = SOLID)
• Liquid (SOLID_LIQUID_GAS_EMISSION_FACTOR; sub-type = LIQUID)
• Gas (SOLID_LIQUID_GAS_EMISSION_FACTOR; sub-type = GAS)
• Transport (SOLID_LIQUID_GAS_EMISSION_FACTOR; sub-type = TRANSPORT)
• StaffTravel (STAFF_TRAVEL_EMISSION_FACTOR)
• (Supplier (SUPPLIER_EMISSION_FACTOR) for custom factors provided by suppliers – future enhancement)
• TaxiTravel (TAXI_TRAVEL_EMISSION_FACTOR)
• Waste (WASTE_EMISSION_FACTOR)
• Water (WATER_EMISSION_FACTOR)

Columns common to all tabs:

• Emission Factor Set Name
• Emission Factor Set ID (used in Configuration DM template by Administration users)
• Emission Factor Set Source (A description or URL of the original factor source. Documents will be archived and hosted on the Help site)
• Emission Factor Set Note (Any additional information about the factor set)
• Emission Factor Set Type Code
• Emission Factor Set Sub-Type Code
• Emission Factor Note (Any additional information about the emission factor)
• Emission Factor Scope 3 Method (future enhancement for Scope 3 supply chain)
• Emission Factor Data Source (future enhancement for Scope 3 supply chain)
• Emission Factor Primary % (future enhancement for Scope 3 supply chain)

Additional columns specific to each factor type are included in each tab.

Note: Market JRPP is included in the Electricity tab. It is included as a placeholder for a future enhancement that will capture and incorporate these values.

Two additional tabs are included as references to support Scope 3 Supply Chain data capture:

• Scope3Methods: lists the nineteen available options.
• Scope3Categories: (as per Scope3Categories tab in Activity Register) lists the fifteen available options.
