3.8 Describe the calculation methodology and comment on the data accuracy, including any tools/methods used to calculate.*
We use a 3rd party called Normative to calculate our emissions. The Normative methodology is built on a proprietary implementation of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and a deep database of emissions factors. Based in the Greenhouse Gas Protocol-recommended hybrid methodology, Normative’s engine can use both transaction data and activity data in its emissions calculations, ensuring comprehensive coverage of all of a business’s sources of emissions. To achieve the most accurate calculations possible, Normative’s carbon accounting engine selects the best approach depending on the type of data provided by a business. The engine then uses intelligent automation to process the business data. This includes mapping the data to the Normative taxonomy – an internal classification system – as well as converting units and currencies where needed. Finally, the engine combines the processed data with Normative’s large database of scientifically-vetted emissions factors to produce emissions calculations across its operations (scope 1), energy usage (scope 2), and value chain (scope 3).
