(C8.2g) Provide a breakdown of your non-fuel energy consumption by country.
Change from last year
New question
Rationale
Breaking down energy consumption to the country or regional level is useful to data users as this is often the level at which energy-related legislation is introduced. Data from this question can help state, region and sub-national bodies guide the development of energy-related legislation.

Requested content
General
- You should include consumption from both purchased/acquired energy and self-generated energy in this question. Energy that is purchased but not physically consumed (e.g. traded power, financial instruments), or energy that is self-generated but not physically consumed, should not be included here.
- Energy consumption figures should be for the reporting year only (as defined by your answer to C0.2).
- If you are a member of the RE100 initiative, the loads that are excluded from your RE100 commitment should still be reported in this question.
Country/area (column 1)
- Select a country/area in accordance with CDP’s Technical Note on “Countries and regions”.
- For countries such as the USA, Canada, or Brazil where several grids can exist within a country, companies are welcome to provide further breakdown details at state/sub-national level using “Other, please specify”.
Consumption of electricity (MWh) (column 2)
- Enter in megawatt hours (MWh) the total amount of electricity consumed by your organization in the selected country/area in the reporting year.
- If your organization has self-generated and consumed electricity using Combined Heat and Power (CHP), this electricity consumption should be included here.
Consumption of heat, steam, and cooling (MWh) (column 3)
- Enter in megawatt hours (MWh) the total amount of heat, steam, and cooling consumed by your company in the selected country/area in the reporting year.
Total non-fuel energy consumption (MWh) (column 4)
- This column will be auto-calculated in the ORS from the “Consumption of electricity” and “Consumption of heat, steam, and cooling” columns. Ensure you have entered data into these columns.
Is this consumption excluded from your RE100 commitment? (column 5)
- This column only appears to RE100 companies.
- RE100 member companies may exclude from their commitment the electricity consumption from certain operations, facilities, or offices, up to 100MWh per year per country and with a total limit of 500 MWh globally. Please refer to the RE100 Materiality Threshold Technical Guidance for more information.
- This exclusion is only valid for countries or markets where it is not technically feasible to source renewable electricity via any credible sourcing options such as Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs). The excluded loads must still be reported on, however. Select “Yes” in this column to indicate that the selected load is excluded from your RE100 target commitment.
