About the data

This field contains data about the total scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions for the whole estate. The value can be recorded to three decimal places. This is applicable to higher education providers (HEP) in Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Reason required: for advice to Government, monitoring progress towards sector carbon targets and for use in producing Capital Investment Framework (CIF) metrics.
Total scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions for the whole estate. Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions from vehicles must be excluded from both Non-residential scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions total and Residential scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions total. A vehicle should not be given a non-residential or residential distinction for the purposes of the Estates management record. This ensures that the scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions from vehicles are not double counted within Total scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions.

Sum total of Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions grid electricity, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions biofuels, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions burning oil, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions compressed natural gas, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions coal (industrial), Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions fuel oil, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions gas oil, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions liquefied natural gas, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions liquefied petroleum gas, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions lubricants, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions natural gas , Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions other petroleum gas, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions petroleum coke, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions biomass, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions onsite photovoltaic, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions onsite wind, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions steam and hot water, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions other onsite renewables, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions vehicles aviation spirit, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions vehicles aviation turbine fuel, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions vehicles biofuels, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions vehicles diesel, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions vehicles liquefied petroleum gas, and Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions vehicles petrol.

This field is calculated from the sum of each scope 1 and 2 carbon emission constituent as well as each of the scope 1 and 2 vehicle emissions (as listed above). It is anticipated that each of these emissions would have a residential and non-residential split (where applicable), therefore the expected total should match the sum total of Non-residential scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions total, Residential scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions total, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions vehicles aviation spirit, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions vehicles aviation turbine fuel, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions vehicles biofuels, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions vehicles diesel, Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions vehicles liquefied petroleum gas, and Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions vehicles petrol.
