This data field is provided for comparison purposes and not required to comply with INREV Guidelines. The floor area percentage of the vehicle for all assets for which scope 2 emissions data is provided. This is calculated based on the amount of space for which the data provided is divided by total supply area. Recommended unit of measure for data coverage is by area (ESG1.6.1: sqm/sqf), investment managers may identify and report KPIs on value (AUM basis). Please also consider the availability of data for the period of time for which assets are owned by the vehicle (ref: GRESB).

To calculate Scope 2 emissions data coverage, divide the floor area with complete and reliable data for location-based Scope 2 emissions by the total supply floor area (ESG1.6.1), then multiply by 100.

Report only areas where actual energy consumption data (electricity, district heating, district cooling, or steam) has been collected and used to calculate Scope 2 emissions. If actual data is available only for part of the portfolio, the coverage percentage should reflect that portion.

Where the underlying energy data has been gap-filled, benchmarked, proxied or otherwise estimated, the resulting emissions should be treated as estimated and excluded from actual-data coverage. Apply the same actual-versus-estimated treatment as in the energy data coverage guidance.

Note: Use the total supply floor area as defined in ESG1.6 Total Area. This ensures consistency across all indicators that use floor area as a denominator.
