Scope 2 Emissions
"To reduce our Scope 2 emissions, my company is focusing on increasing our use of electricity from renewable sources to power our main production plant."
Definition
Emissions resulting from energy that was purchased by an organization from external sources (primarily electricity and steam). Like scope 1 emissions, scope 2 emission data sources range from meter readings and invoices (most accurate), to company-wide financial data (least accurate). Scope 2 emission calculations require additional data on the electricity mix of a regional or national power grid in a given year.
