The Plan A Sustainability Platform calculates your emissions using the same data inputs that you provide when uploading data for Stationary Combustion, Mobile Combustion and Purchased Electricity. To generate your Fuel- and Energy-Related Activities emissions you need to upload activity data to those categories. Most clients collect this data from their site management team.
In addition to this you can also upload Bring Your Own Emissions (BYOE) data for this category. Bring Your Own Emissions allows you to upload your own pre-calculated emissions to the platform. More and more companies are providing emissions values for the goods and services they provide. This data is usually based on intimate knowledge of the product, meaning they are usually the most accurate emissions readings. For more information on BYOE, see here.
If you can't access data in the required formats, please take a look at our advice here.
Note: Please note that Plan A neither tests nor verifies the methodology for any emission value you enter using the Bring Your Own Emissions upload option and it is your responsibility to ensure the underlying calculation methods used to get the emissions value are in line with your reporting needs (e.g. compliance with GHG Protocol).
