About the data
This sub-metric is used to evaluate the metric : ""3.3 Renewable energy""
With this metric we aim to assess companies' efforts to source energy from both purchased and self-generated renewable sources.
Renewable energy or 'green energy' generally emits fewer GHG emissions than other energy sources that supply the electricity grid.
Examples are solar photovoltaic panels, solar thermal, geothermal energy, landfill gas, low-impact hydropower and wind turbines. This description can be found on page 98 and chapter 4 of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol.

Methodology
We will "assign a" "YES" "to this question if:
- The company declares that at least 50% of the electricity it consumes comes from renewable sources in all its facilities.
This information can be found in any of the following reports published on the companies' website:
- Annual memory
- Corporate Social Responsibility Report
- Sustainability Report
- Environmental Report
- Report on Carbon Footprint
- Non-Financial Information Statement (EINF)
