Total scope 3 carbon emissions from wastewater treatment (tonnes CO2e)
What is the total scope 3 carbon emissions from wastewater treatment for the total estate?
About the data
This field contains data about scope 3 carbon emissions from wastewater treatment for the total 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: part of the move to mandatory reporting of scope 3 carbon emissions.
Reason required: part of the move to mandatory reporting of scope 3 carbon emissions.
Methodology
This conversion will be undertaken by HESA.
Total scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions (tonnes) from the treatment of wastewater for the whole estate (kWh).
The Defra conversion factors and guidance provide the conversion factor that will be used for the sum total of Total volume of wastewater, Total water supply grey water and rain water, and Total water borehole extraction as well as supplemental information.
Please note that HEPs in England, Northern Ireland or Wales will need to return a value for the fields Total volume of wastewater, Total water supply grey water and rain water and Total water borehole extraction to ensure that this mandatory field is calculated correctly.
