Total carbon intensity - location based (tonne CO2e/area/yr)

Topic: Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG) | Field Level: Vehicle | Label: ghg_emissions_total_carbon_intensity_location_based | Indicator ID: ESG4.3.2

Industry Mapping: SFDR PAI, GRESB Real Estate Standard and Reference Guide (2025), EPRA sBPR Guidelines 2024, GRI Standards 2021, CSRD, TCFD (2021)

The total location-based carbon intensity of the vehicle for all assets for which both actual and estimated data is provided for carbon emissions and it is weighted by floor 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). 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).
