•Updates to reporting framework:
– Additional sub-sectors – Adjusted sectors for BASIC/BASIC+ reporting levels– Biogenic carbon CO2(b) and NF3
– Data quality indicators for activity data (AD) and for emission factors (EF) – Explanatory column added– Visualized formula and tools– Information table for renewable energy generation and carbon credit
transition
Significant guidance added:
– setting and tracking goals, calculation and methodology, – Where to obtain activity data and emission factors
