This conversion will be undertaken by HESA. Total scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions from grid electricity (kWh) for the whole estate. The Defra conversion factors and guidance provide the conversion factor that will be used for energy consumption grid electricity as well as supplemental information. Electricity supplied through 'green tariffs' will not be considered zero carbon and the average grid electricity carbon factor will be applied. An emission reduction will be applied for any renewable electricity that has been generated and exported to the national grid or a third party at the one year average factor. Please see Page 114 of the Environmental Reporting Guidelines: Including streamlined energy and carbon reporting guidance March 2019. |
