About the data

This field contains data about scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions for the non-residential 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.
This figure is for the scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions of the non-residential estate only.

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.

HEPs will need to enter this figure (as the breakdown collected in Estates management record is not sufficient to enable HESA to calculate this).
