Report total Scope 1 (direct) GHG emissions in metric tonnes of CO2 equivalent. Recommended use of a GHG Calculator.
Direct (Scope 1) GHG emissions can come from the following sources owned or controlled by a company: Generation of electricity, heating, cooling, and steam: these emissions result from combustion of fuels in stationary sources, such as boilers, furnaces, and turbines – and from other combustion processes such as flaring
Physical or chemical processing: most of these emissions result from the manufacturing or processing of chemicals and materials, such as cement, steel, aluminium, ammonia, and waste processing
Transportation of materials, products, waste, workers, and passengers: these emissions result from the combustion of fuels in mobile combustion sources owned or controlled by the company, such as trucks, trains, ships, airplanes, buses, and cars
Fugitive emissions: these are emissions that are not physically controlled but result from intentional or unintentional releases of GHGs. These can include equipment leaks from joints, seals, packing, and gaskets; methane emissions (e.g., from coal mines) and venting HFC emissions from refrigeration and air conditioning equipment; and methane leakages (e.g., from gas transport)
