For information about converting the values from one unit of measure to another compatible unit of measure, see Conversion Factors.

Here are the calculated fields:

  • Scope 3 Emissions (tCO2e) (Scope3EmissionsInTco2e)

    Input Fields

    • Distance [Distance]

    • Expense Type (ExpenseType)

    • Trip Cost (TripCost)

    • Ground Travel Emissions Factors (GroundTravelEmssnFctr)

    • Supplemental Scope 3 Emissions (SuplScope3Emissions)

    • Procurement Emission Factor Set Item (PcmtEmssnFctrSetItem)
      • Total Scope 3 Emissions per Million Spent (tCO2e) (TotScpe3EmssnPerMillionSpent)

    Calculations

    If PcmtEmssnFctrSetItem exists then Scope 3 Emissions (tCO2e) = PcmtEmssnFctrSetItem.Total Scope 3 Emissions per Million Spent (tCO2e) * Trip Cost/100000

    If GroundTravelEmssnFctr exists then

    • If Expense Type = “Limousine” or “Taxi”, then Scope 3 Emissions (tCO2e) = [(Trip Cost /GroundTravelEmssnFctr.Taxi Rate (Cost/Distance Unit)) × GroundTravelEmssnFctr.Taxi Emissions (kg CO2e/Distance Unit) /1000 ] + Supplemental Scope 3 Emissions

    • If Expense Type = “Personal Car Distance”, then Scope 3 Emissions (tCO2e) = Distance (convert to miles) × GroundTravelEmssnFctr.Personal Car Emissions (kg CO2e/Distance Unit)/1000 + SuplScope3Emissions. If GroundTravelEmssnFctr.Distance Unit! = “miles”, then convert the Personal Car Emissions (kg CO2e/Distance Unit) to miles

    • If Expense Type = “Subway/Train/Trolley - Cross State/Country” or “Subway/Train/Trolley - Local Public Transit”, then Scope3EmissionsInTco2e = [(Trip Cost /GroundTravelEmssnFctr.Train Rate (Cost/Distance Unit)) × GroundTravelEmssnFctr.Train Emissions (kg CO2e/Distance Unit) /1000 ] + Supplemental Scope 3 Emissions

    Default Value

    Scope 3 Emissions (tCO2e) = Supplemental Scope 3 Emissions

  • Distance (Distance)

    Input Fields

    • Average distance between work and home

    • Number of travel days 3.

    • Employees using the ground travel as the mode of transport

    Calculations

    If all inputs are not null, then Distance = Average distance between work and home × 2 × Number of travel days * Employees using ground travel as the mode of transport
