GHG Emission Totals (Year-to-Date)

Use this dashboard to view the GHG emission data for the current year. Breakdown the impact of GHG emissions at different levels of an enterprise and the progress achieved toward organizational goals. You can view this widget with a one month or a one year timeline.

Total Emissions: View the total GHG emissions in metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2e) for the current year. This value is the contribution of scope 1 and scope 2 emissions.

Total GHG emissions are the contribution of scope 1 (Stationary Combustion, Mobile Combustion, and Fugitive Emissions from Air Conditioning) and scope 2 (Purchased Electricity and Purchased Heat/Steam) emission based on the GHG protocol.

The following table shows the commodities for scope 1 and scope 2.

Scope 1 Coal
Diesel
Fuel oil
Liquid propane
Natural gas
Scope 2 Chilled water
Electricity
High temperature hot water
Hot water
Steam

Total Emission Reduction: Track the Total Emissions reduction of Renewable Energy Certifications (RECs) and Carbon Offsets for the year.

Net Emissions: View the Net Emissions for the current year. This value is the difference between the Total Emissions and Total Emission Reduction values.

GHG Emission/Energy: View GHG emissions by commodity or by energy consumption. The widget shows the values for the year to date, and is viewable in a tabular and graphical forms. View energy consumption for all commodities in Metric Million British Thermal Unit (MMBtu) or GHG carbon emission in MTCO2e broken down by each commodity.

GHG Emissions Breakdown by scope

View the total emission from scope 1 sources and scope 2 sources.

View the Total Emissions, Total Emission Reductions and Net Emissions for scope 1 and 2. View classification of scope 1 and 2 emissions based on the individual emission sources.

Emissions Breakdown

Detailed breakdown dashboard helps you to better track details like scope and energy sources of GHG emissions.

Emission dashboard displays the historical carbon emission based on a timeline selection for the past 1, 5, 10 years or a custom date range. Historical emission is broken down in to GHG inventories scopes 1 and 2. Click View Emissions Breakdown to view emissions by scope and energy source over time. You can also view the details of yearly emissions broken down based on commodities like electricity, natural gas, and fuel oil.

View and download this information in a tabular format.

Energy Consumption

The Energy consumption dashboard complements the GHG emissions dashboard by mirroring the dataset in energy units like kWh, kBTU, and MMBTU.

Energy consumption is based on the utility bills for all locations across the enterprise. Analyze energy consumption based on different metrics such as EUI, or by Degree days. View all commodity energy consumption data based on energy source.

Compare energy consumption data for different years. View the energy consumption in different units like kWh, kBTU, MMBtu.

GHG Emissions

View the enterprise wide GHG emissions based on the utility bills for all locations across the enterprise. Analyze GHG emissions based on different metrics such as total emission or emission intensity.

View all commodity energy consumption data based on energy source. Compare emissions data for different years.

Location Metrics Overview
Compare different locations at the portfolio level based on the following parameters:
  • Location
  • Number of buildings
  • Area
  • Total consumption
  • Consumption per unit area
  • Peak demand
  • Carbon emission
  • Emission per unit area
  • Consumption per degree days
  • Average Energy Star score
This widget helps you to compare and identify locations or buildings that need improvement. Click a location to view the building metrics overview widget.
Building Metrics Overview
Compare different buildings based on the following parameters:
  • Building
  • Area
  • Consumption
  • Demand
  • Carbon emission
  • Consumption per unit area
  • Emission per unit area
  • Consumption per degree days
Click a building to view the building summary and building energy consumption widgets.
Building Summary
