Build a Scope 2 result that reports both location-based and market-based methods.
Calculate Scope 2 for 2,400,000 kWh consumed in a US grid region with 1,500,000 kWh of eligible renewable instruments. Use one consumption base, then calculate location-based and market-based results separately. The common shortcut is to subtract renewable instruments from the story and call the remaining electricity zero-carbon. That can overclaim, hide unmatched load, and make location-based emissions disappear from the disclosure. Step 1 Confirm total electricity consumption: 2,400,000 kWh for the reporting period and site boundary. Both Scope 2 methods start from the same activity data. The methods diverge in factor selection, not in whether electricity was consumed. Step 2…
