There are three Capital Good calculation methods to choose from:
Spend-based method uses the amount spent per capital good and a capital good category. This is our recommended calculation method as it provides the most accurate results.
Bring Your Own Emissions allows you to upload your own pre-calculated emissions to the Plan A platform. For more information, see here.
Bring Your Own Emission Factors (BYOEF) allows you to upload your own emission factors with your activity to calculate emissions. It is your responsibility to ensure the emission factors align with your reporting needs.
We recommend calculation methods based on their accuracy but ultimately you should choose a calculation method that fits the data you have access to.
