Emission Factor Lab
Join other organizations in the Emission Factor Lab and dive into emissions reporting challenges. Together, we will explore use cases and co–develop guidance on how to leverage different types of Emission Factors in the context of value chain interventions.
Why Join?
The Emission Factor Lab will help your company navigate how to best use of emission factors for accurate Scope 3 reporting and tracking progress toward Scope 3 targets. You will gain a deeper understanding of how to apply emission factors effectively, ensuring that value chain intervention outcomes are reflected correctly in corporate emissions inventories.
Through expert-led discussions, we will explore different approaches for the developing and using Emission Factors, assess their implications, and develop guidance for reporting. The Lab will also help develop a common framework to support decision-making on Emission Factors, ensuring transparency and credibility.
Key Challenges We Want to Address
Integrating Primary Data: With increasing pressure to use primary data, companies struggle with integrating it into emission factor calculations due to a lack of clear methodology.
Lack of Guidance: Standards and frameworks provide limited guidance, leading to inconsistencies and making it difficult to compare emissions data across companies.
Reliance on Generic Emission Factors: Many companies use generic emission factors that don’t reflect their specific context or the impact of interventions, affecting the accuracy of their reporting.
Lack of Trust and Transparency: Inconsistent emission factors and limited guidance contribute to a general lack of trust in the data, making it harder for companies to credibly report their decarbonization progress.
Objectives
Enhance Understanding Provide your team with a deeper understanding of how to use emission factors accurately to track and report Scope 3 emissions and decarbonization progress.
Explore Different Approaches: explore various methods for building and applying emission factors in the context of value chain interventions, ensuring you understand the best practices for each approach.
Create a Common Framework: Develop a standardized framework for decision-making around emission factors, making it easier to apply them consistently and effectively in your reporting.
Ensure Credible Reporting: Empower your company to confidently report on its emissions reductions and impact, backed by clear, reliable data and methodology.
Approach & Timeline
The Emission Factor Lab offers a structured journey combining expert-led sessions with practical applications. Participants will explore different methods for developing and using emission factors, engaging in discussions and hands-on activities. By the end, you will have the knowledge to enhance your emissions reporting and decarbonization strategy, along with a comprehensive guidance document for future application.
