(C8.2i) Provide details of your organization’s low-carbon heat, steam, and cooling purchases in the reporting year by country.

Question dependencies

This question only appears to RE100 members. This question only appears if you select “Yes” in response to “Consumption of purchased or acquired heat”, “Consumption of purchased or acquired steam” or “Consumption of purchased or acquired cooling” in response to C8.2.

Change from last year

New question

Rationale

Providing details of low-carbon heat, steam and cooling purchases by country provides data users with a more complete picture of an organization’s low carbon and renewable energy consumption.

Connection to other frameworks

SDG

Goal 7: Affordable and clean energy

Goal 13: Climate action

Requested content

General

  • Data and information you provide should be for the reporting year only (as defined by your answer to C0.2).

Country/area of consumption of the low-carbon heat, steam, or cooling (column 1)

  • Select the country/area where the purchased heat, steam, or cooling has been consumed.
  • You should add multiple rows per country if you have used multiple sourcing methods or technology types in the same country in the reporting year.

Sourcing Method (column 2)

  • Different sourcing methods in the same country should be reported in separate rows.
  • If you select “Other, please specify” to report a sourcing method not listed here, provide more information on the sourcing method used in the “Comment” column (column 6).

Low-carbon technology type (column 4)

  • If you select the option “Sustainable biomass”, provide the criteria used to classify the biomass as sustainable (e.g. certification) in the “Comment” column (column 6). Please refer to the CDP Technical note on Biofuels for guidance on biomass/biofuel sustainability.

Comment (column 6) (optional)

  • If you select the option “Sustainable biomass” in column “Low-carbon technology type” (column 4), provide the criteria used to classify the biomass as sustainable (e.g. certification).

Explanation of terms

  • Low-carbon energy: in line with the IEA definition, low-carbon technologies are technologies that produce low – or zero – greenhouse-gas emissions while operating. In the power sector this includes fossil-fuel plants fitted with carbon capture and storage, nuclear plants and renewable-based generation technologies. Natural gas, combined cycle gas turbine and fossil fuel-based combined heat and power (cogeneration), despite being less carbon intensive than other means of electricity production like coal, are not considered low-carbon.
  • Biomass: any organic matter, i.e. biological material, available on a renewable basis. Includes feedstock derived from animals or plants, such as wood and agricultural crops, and organic waste from municipal and industrial sources. Biomass fuels should be sustainably sourced and certified where possible, and include:

- Solid biofuels - solid fuels derived from biomass. Includes feedstock derived from animals or plants, such as wood and agricultural crops, and organic waste from municipal and industrial sources.
- Biogas - a mixture of methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) used as fuel and produced by bacterial degradation of organic matter or through gasification of biomass.
- Liquid biofuels – liquid fuels derived from biomass such as ethanol and biodiesel.
