Scope 2 GHG emissions - market-based (tCO2e)
France Invest 2026
Indirect emissions due to purchase of electricity, heat, steam, etc. The focus should be on market-based emissions. The market-based method for Scope 2 GHG emissions calculates indirect emissions from purchased electricity based on the specific emissions factors of the energy sources that a company selects through contracts or certificates (like renewable energy credits). This approach reflects the emissions impact of the company’s specific energy purchasing choices.
