Supplier-Specific Emission Factor

From Open Risk Manual

Definition

A Supplier-Specific Emission Factor is an emission rate provided by an electricity supplier to its customers, reflecting the GHG emissions associated with the energy it provides.

Suppliers offering differentiated products (e.g. a renewable energy product) should provide specific emission rates for each product and ensure they are not double counted with standard power offers.
