In the absence of actual data, energy use can be estimated based on building characteristics and publicly available data using commercial databases - see PCAF, and/or linear extrapolation could be applied - see CRREM (ref: GRESB). Location-based method quantifies Scope 2 GHG emissions based on average energy generation emission factors for defined locations, including local, subnational, or national boundaries (ref: GHG Protocol, “Scope 2 Guidance”, Glossary, 2015).
