Location Based Emissions
This method calculates
emissions from electricity
based on the average emission
intensity of the power grid we
use. Unless specified we have
used this method.
Scope 1
Scope 1 emissions are direct
greenhouse gas emissions
from sources that a company
owns or controls.
Market Based Emissions
This method is calculated using
emission rates from chosen
energy suppliers or contracts
and is intended to support the
use and reporting of green
energy tariffs.
Scope 2
Scope 2 emissions are indirect
greenhouse gas emissions
from the purchase of
electricity, steam, heating, or
cooling that a company
consumes.
Biochar
Biochar is a carbon-rich
material that improves soil
health, stores carbon and
reduces greenhouse gas
emissions.
Scope 3
Scope 3 emissions are indirect
greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions that occur in a
company9s value chain but are
not directly owned or
controlled by the company.
