8. Data collection and uncertainties
Scope 1 data is predominately provided from Fuel Card reports. The exception is diesel fuel
consumption relating to fire pump testing, this is provided by the contractor and is manually
collated.
Refrigerant emissions are provided by the HVAC contractor and include the volume of gas
required to re-gas existing HVAC systems after damage or repair.
Scope 2 data includes electricity from the operation of the management offices and from
building areas and building services, within the portfolio, under operational control. In all cases
the data is provided by Smart Power, an independent service provider.
Scope 3 data includes mileage expense claims from staff using personal vehicles for business.
This is extracted from the Fraedom expense management system which tracks individual trips
and generates summary reports. Taxi travel is taken from company credit card use or expense
claims that is also are entered through the Fraedom system. Travel via Uber is taken from an
annual summary of the Goodman account.
With no dedicated travel service provider, business trips are booked directly. Domestic and
international flight data is extracted from the ledger with the description of each trip used to
assess distance using online tools with relevant short haul and long-haul factors then used to
calculate emissions.
