To establish the reporting parameters, emissions were identified, as well as the direct and indirect removals associated to the organisation’s operations: significant GHG emissions linked to company activity have been identified within the reporting parameters.
Specifically, in Scope 3, 9 out of 15 Categories were assessed as significant and reportable for the company being analysed.
Categories
The methodology used for quantifying greenhouse gas emissions is based on calculations.
The choice of this method is consistent with the company size and the quantity and type of sources present within
the organizational boundaries. The method is also easily reproducible in subsequent years for comparative purposes.
The quantification of GHG emissions was carried out by multiplying the activity data and the related emission factor, obtaining the tonnes of CO2 equivalent.
All activity data relating to greenhouse gas emissions in this study were modelled using databases such as Ecoinvent, ISPRA, EPA, ISTAT, DEFRA and published literature.
