Introduction
1.1 Scope and update of the Guidance
The Guidance on Calculating Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions (hereinafter, the
Guidance) is designed to help estimate GHG emissions. This Guidance is intended
as a tool to help organisations and the general public estimate the emissions
associated with their activities, or the reduction to be expected once mitigation
measures have been implemented.
This Guidance also presents the framework of organisations' inventories or carbon
footprints, and, based on internationally recognised protocols, explains the different
types of emissions categories to be encountered. Likewise, it introduces the carbon
footprint of events.
The term ‘greenhouse gases’ (GHG) refers to CO2 equivalent (CO2-eq), which
includes the six greenhouse gases included in the Kyoto Protocol: carbon dioxide
(CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFC),
perfluorocarbons (PFC), and sulphur hexafluoride (SF6).
The Guidance in and of itself does not allow the possible total GHG emissions of an
organisation or activity to be calculated. What the Guidance does enable you to
calculate are emissions associated with energy consumption, in both stationary
facilities and transport, fugitive fluorinated gas emissions, and emissions from
municipal waste management.

As a complement to this Guidance, a greenhouse gas emissions calculator has been
drawn up as an aid to organisations and the general public (available via the
calculator link). With this calculator, and following the recommendations in the
Guidance, we can calculate CO2 emissions directly. Finally, the Guidance can also
serve as a useful tool for organisations who are preparing a GHG emissions
inventory under the Programme of Voluntary Agreements for Greenhouse Gas
Emissions Reduction initiated by the Government of Catalonia.
This Guidance will be reviewed by the Catalan Office for Climate Change (OCCC) at
least once a year. As part of the review, emission factors will be updated with the
latest available data, and, wherever possible, the scope of the categories included in
the calculation of GHG emissions will be extended.
New features of the Guidance 2013
Some of the new features of this new edition of the Guidance are:
• Update of the emission factors of fossil fuels according to the latest available
data.
• Update of the electricity mix using the latest available data in accordance with
the OCCC's electricity mix calculation method.
• Incorporation of the emission factor for agricultural gas oil (kg CO2/litre).
• Incorporation of the emission factor of LPG (kg CO2/litre and g CO2/km).
• Update of average motor fuel prices.
• Update of the emission factors of motorised transport (g CO2/km) as per the
update (May 2012) of the Corinair 2009 method and according to speed per
type of vehicle of the Ministry of Territory and Sustainability.1
• Update of rail transport modes and their emission factors according to the
latest available data.
• Incorporation of the emission factor for gas oil for sea transport (kg CO2/l gas
oil).

• Incorporation of the calculation method for emissions from municipal waste
management.
1.2 Conceptual framework
In general, when dealing with the concept of an organisation’s ‘carbon footprint’, we
are describing the total impact of an organisation on the climate due to GHG
emissions into the atmosphere. The term ‘organisation’ includes companies,
institutions, government agencies, non-profit organisations and associations,
amongst others. In order to quantify this ‘footprint’, it is imperative that an estimation
protocol and GHG emissions accounting be applied.
One of the methodologies used to quantify GHG emissions is ISO 14064 standard
part 12
, and ISO 14069, which serves as a guide to applying ISO 14064, part 1. This
standard was developed in accordance with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG
Protocol)3
. When it comes to understanding, quantifying and managing GHG
emissions, this GHG Protocol, of the World Resources Institute and the World
Business Council for Sustainable Development, is one of the most widely used at
international level. These two documents are the major references on the subject.
The carbon footprint of certain activities, such as an event, can also be determined
as a way of estimating their impact in terms of greenhouse gas emissions.
The term carbon footprint is also applied to products, in which case the estimation
methodologies are based on life-cycle analysis.

1.3 GHG emission categories in organisations
GHG emissions associated with an organisation's activity can be classified according
to whether they are direct or indirect.
• Direct emissions are emissions from sources owned or controlled by the
organisation.
• Indirect emissions are emissions that are a consequence of the organisation’s
activity, but that arise from sources owned or controlled by another
organisation.
Specifically, these emissions can be defined under three scopes:
Scope 1: Direct emissions
It includes direct emissions from sources owned or controlled by the organisation.
For example, this group includes emissions from combustion sources such as boilers
and organisation-owned or organisation-leased vehicles.
Scope 2: Indirect emissions from electricity, heat, steam or cold generation
It includes emissions derived from the consumption of electricity, heating or cooling
or steam generated off-site but purchased by the organisation. The facilities
producing the emissions are different from the organisation estimating emissions.
Scope 3: Other indirect emissions
It includes all other indirect emissions. Scope 3 emissions are the result of the
organisation’s activities, but are from sources not owned or controlled by the
organisation. Examples of Scope 3 activities are business trips, goods, material or
passenger transport by another organisation, waste management by an organisation
other than the generator and the production of purchased raw materials.
Figure 1 shows a diagram with a breakdown of which emissions are included in the
three scopes of GHG emissions, and which emissions can be calculated using this
Guidance.

Figure 1. Classification of GHG emissions and emissions calculated using the Guidance
− Scope 1 emissions include emissions derived from fuel combustion, own-fleet
transport and other emissions such as process emissions4
(e.g. CO2 emissions
produced in decarbonation of calcium carbonate to produce clinker in a cement
factory) and fugitive emissions5
(e.g. fluorinated gas emissions from possible
leaks from refrigeration equipment). Emissions from own-fleet transport are, as
the name suggests, those generated by the fleet owned by the organisation
calculating them. However, it is advisable to include emissions from third-party
fleets when the organisation has the operational control, as it is therefore in a
position to help reduce such emissions.
− Scope 2 emissions include emissions generated from the consumption of
purchased electricity, heating and cooling and steam produced off-site.
4
Process emissions: GHG emissions different from combustion emissions, produced as a result of intentional and unintentional
reactions between substances or their processing, including chemical and electrolytic reduction of metals, chemical
decomposition and formation of substances for use as products or raw materials in processes. CO2 emissions from biomass-
based physical or chemical processes have been excluded (e.g.: grape fermentation, aerobic waste treatment, other).
7
5
Direct fugitive emissions: in accordance with ISO 14069, leaks from equipment and storage and transport systems, and leaks
from reservoirs and injection wells.

8
− Scope 3 emissions include other indirect emissions, such as those generated
from the purchase of materials and fuel, waste treatment, outsourced purchases,
the sale of goods and services and transport-related activities. Here the concept
of transport covers emissions from work-related travel off the company premises,
such as business travel, distribution operations and commuting6
. These are
‘external’ trips because they are undertaken on a fleet not owned by the
organisation. Emissions from transport on a non-owned fleet managed by the
organisation should be excluded, as these are considered Scope 1 emissions.
6
Journeys from home to work and vice versa.

1.4 Emissions covered by the Emissions Trading System
(ETS) Directive and non-ETS emissions
Directive 2009/29/EC amending Directive 2003/87/EC so as to improve and extend
the greenhouse gas emission allowance trading scheme of the Community aims to
reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 20% by the year 2020 compared to
1990 levels. This means that, in 2020, the emissions allowances assigned to facilities
as part of the Community trading scheme must be below 21% in comparison to
reported 2005 levels.
In this respect, GHG emissions can be classed as emissions covered by the ETS
Directive and emissions not covered by ETS Directive (known as non-ETS
emissions). When dealing with mitigation, any tonne reduced is necessary and
useful, but the distinction between ETS emissions and non-ETS emissions may be
useful in subsequent analyses.

2.1 Electricity consumption
Emission factors
− To calculate the associated emissions, it is important to apply a CO2 emission
factor that can be attributed to electricity supply - also called the electricity mix (g
CO2/kWh) - to represent emissions associated with electricity generation.
− In Catalonia, any electricity consumed and not generated here, comes from the
Spanish electricity grid, and there is no way of determining at which power station
it was produced. Therefore, the data used in calculating the electricity mix
concern the Spanish national grid. Furthermore, and according to the GHG
Protocol7
and ISO 140698
, indirect emissions from electricity generation include
only those emissions generated by all power stations in the network. For this
reason, the OCCC recommends using the mix that reflects the emissions of the
Spanish electricity grid associated with gross electricity generation. Annex 7
explains the electricity mix calculation method in detail.
− The gross electricity generation mix recommended by the OCCC for 2012 is
300 g CO2/kWh.

EXAMPLE OF ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION
An elderly care home with an annual electricity consumption of 38,000 kWh implements
measures to save electricity, such as energy-efficient lighting and energy-saving air
conditioning and appliances, which reduce electricity consumption by 8%. What is the
resulting reduction in emissions?
INITIAL FINAL
Energy consumption = 38,000
kWh/year
Energy consumption = 38,000 - (38,000
x 0.08) = 34,960 kWh/year
CO2 emissions = (38,000 kWh/year
x 300 g CO2/kWh) = 11,400,000 g
CO2/year
CO2 emissions = (34,960 kWh/year x
300 g CO2/kWh) = 10,488,000 g
CO2/year
Therefore the saving in emissions is:
11,400,000 g CO2 - 10,488,000 g CO2 = 912,000 g CO2/year (0.912 tCO2/year)

12
2.2 Fossil fuel consumption
Emission factors
− Units vary according to type of fuel:
• Natural gas (m)3
• Butane gas (kg or number of cylinders)
• Butane gas (kg or number of cylinders)
• Gas oil (litres)
• Fuel oil (kg)
• Generic LPG (kg)
• National and imported coal (kg)
• Petroleum coke (kg)
− Conversion factors to change mass or volume units into energy units, according
to fuel type, representing the calorific value of fuels are as follows:
FUEL CONVERSION FACTOR9
Natural gas (m)3
) 10.70 kWh/Nm3
of natural gas10
Butane gas (kg) 12.44 kWh/kg of butane gas
Propane gas (kg) 12.83 kWh/kg of propane gas
Gas oil (kg) 11.78 kWh/kg of gas oil

Petroleum coke (kg) 3.19 kg CO2/kg petroleum coke
NATURAL GAS EXAMPLE
A household consuming 100 m3
of natural gas per month replaces the boiler with a more
efficient model, which leads to a 5% reduction in total natural gas consumption. The
reduction in associated CO2 emissions is calculated as follows:
INITIAL FINAL
Energy consumption = 100 m3
of
natural gas/month
Energy consumption = 100 - (100 x
0.05) = 95 m3
ofnatural gas/month
CO2 emissions = (100 m3
x 2.15
kg/m3
) = 215.00 kg CO2/month
CO2emissions = (95 m3
x 2.15 kg/m3
) =
204.25 kg CO2/month
215.00 kg of CO2 - 204.25 kg of CO2 = 10.75 kg of CO2 /month;
10.75 kg of CO2 /month x 12 = 129.00 kg CO2 /year (0.129 t of CO2 /year)

GAS OIL EXAMPLE
A household consuming 1,000 litres of heating oil per year changes fuel. It goes over to
natural gas, consuming 931 m3
natural gas/year. The reduction in associated CO2 emissions
is calculated as follows:
INITIAL FINAL
Energy consumption = 1,000 litres gas
oil/year
Energy consumption = 931 m3
of
natural gas/year
CO2 emissions = (1,000 l/year x 2.79
kg/l) = 2,790.00 kg CO2/year
CO2 emissions = (931 m3
/year x 2.15
kg/Nm3
) = 2,001.65 kg CO2/year
2,790.00 kg CO2 - 2,001.65 kg CO2 = 788.35 kg CO2 /year (0.788 t CO2 /year)

15
2.3 Biomass13
Emission factors14
• The use of pure biomass15
as a fuel leads to what are considered neutral
emissions, as the CO2 emitted during combustion had been previously absorbed
from the atmosphere. Therefore, the emission factor applied to pure biomass is
zero (t CO2/TJ or t or Nm3
). In order to provide you with further information, Annex
2 contains a list of materials considered pure biomass with an emission factor of
zero (t CO2/TJ, t CO2/t or t CO2/Nm3
)16
.
BIOMASS EXAMPLE
A plant in the ceramics sector with a natural gas consumption of 3.5 million m3
installs a
biomass boiler fuelled with rice and corn husks, which means it can supply 15% of its
energy itself. The reduction in associated CO2 emissions is calculated as follows:
INITIAL FINAL
Energy consumption = 3,500,000 m3
of
natural gas/year
Energy consumption = 3,500,000 -
(3,500,000 x 0.15) = 2,975,000 m3
of
natural gas/year
CO2 emissions = (3,500,000 m3
/year x
2.15 kg/Nm3
) = 7,525,000 kg CO2/year
CO2 emissions = (2,975,000 m3
/year x
2.15 kg/Nm3
) = 6,396,250 kg CO2/year
7,525,000 kg CO2/year - 6,396,250 kg CO2/year = 1,128,750 kg CO2/year (1,128.75 t
CO2/year)
13
‘Biomass’ means non-fossilised and biodegradable organic material originating from plants, animals and micro-organisms,
including products, by-products, residues and waste from agriculture, forestry and related industries as well as the non-
fossilised and biodegradable organic fractions of industrial and municipal wastes, including gases and liquids recovered from
the decomposition of non-fossilised and biodegradable organic material. http://eur-

It must be remembered that, when referring to biofuels, this emissions calculation method does not include associated
emissions that may arise from its life cycle.
15
Fuel or material shall qualify as pure biomass if the non-biomass content accounts for no more than 3% of the total quantity of
the fuel or material concerned: http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=OJ:L:2007:229:0001:0085:EN:PDF

2.4 Renewable energy
2.4.1 Renewable energy for self-consumption
• The use of renewable energy only for self-consumption results directly in a
reduction of energy consumption (from the electricity grid and/or fossil fuels).
EXAMPLE
A swimming club with total heating requirements of 382,800 kWh a year (initially met by a
natural gas boiler) installs a solar heating system to provide hot water and to heat the
swimming pool, which generates 79,000 kWh/year. The reduction in associated CO2
emissions is calculated as follows:
INITIAL FINAL
Energy consumption = 382,800
kWh/year x 1 Nm3
/10.70 kWh =
35,775.70 m3
of natural gas/year
Energy consumption = 382,800 - 79,000 =
303,800 kWh/year; 303,800 kWh/year x 1
Nm3
/10.70 kWh = 28,392.52 m3
of natural
gas/year
CO2 emissions = (35,775.70 m3
x 2.15
kg/Nm3
) = 76,917.76 kg CO2/year
CO2 emissions = (28,392.52 m3
x 2.15
kg/Nm3
) = 61,043.93 kg CO2/year
76,917.76 kg CO2/year - 61,043.93 kg CO2/year = 15,873.83 kg CO2/year (15.87 t
CO2/year).

17
2.4.2 Renewable energy connected to the grid
• Producing renewable energy (e.g. a solar or wind power installation) that is
connected to the grid translates into a reduction of emissions for the total amount
of electricity generated in Spain, that is, the electricity mix decreases
proportionally.
This means a reduction of emissions covered by the Emissions Trading System
Directive, but in no case counts as a reduction of non-ETS emissions.

3
Transport
3.1 Cars
3.1.1 Passenger transport
CO2 emissions from motor vehicles (cars) can be calculated differently depending on
the data available. This proposal specifically includes the calculation method for three
types of data17
:
A. litres of fuel (diesel or petrol) consumed; or, if this data is not available, option
B;
B. amount (in euros) associated with fuel consumption (diesel or petrol); or, if this
data is not available, option C;
C. km covered and make and model of car (diesel or petrol).
It also includes emission factors which are useful when the data available concerns
the distance covered but the make and model of the car are unknown.
18
17
The most appropriate method is that based on litres of fuel, followed by euros spent on fuel and, finally, calculation based on
kilometres covered and exact make and model of vehicle.

19
A. Litres of fuel (diesel or petrol) consumed
DATA AVAILABLE CALCULATION METHOD AND EMISSION FACTOR
Fuel consumption
(litres diesel or
petrol)
Calculation of CO2 emissions based on the following emission factors18
:
• Petrol 95 or 98: 2.38 kg CO2/litre
• Diesel: 2.61 kg CO2/litre
• Bioethanol: 2.38 kg CO2/litre - % bioethanol19
If we use bioethanol 5, the fuel has 5% bioethanol (and 95% petrol
95) and the associated emissions are 2.38 – (0.05 x 2.38) = 2.26 kg
CO2/litre
• Biodiesel: 2.61 kg CO2/litre - % biodiesel20
If we use biodiesel-30, that means it's 30% biodiesel (and 70% diesel)
and the associated emissions are = 2.61 – (0.3 x 2.61) = 1.83 kg
CO2/litre
• Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG): 1.63 kg CO2/litre21
It is important to keep in mind that, in the case of electric vehicles, CO2 emissions
cannot be assumed to be zero. Electric vehicles generate CO2 emissions through the
electricity they consume to charge their batteries. Therefore, to calculate the CO2
emissions for an electric vehicle, we must multiply electricity consumption due to
charging the battery (kWh) by the electricity mix, available in section 2.1 of this
Guidance.

such as vehicle characteristics and speed limit. The table shows emission factors (g
CO2/km) as an aggregate. The use of emission factors by vehicle type separated by
driving type (g CO2/km), found in Annex 3, is recommended.

The same calculation method as for passenger transport emissions (section 3.1.1) is
proposed for goods transport by car.
To give the most realistic results possible, the percentage represented by the load
transported in respect of the vehicle total load must be established. This can be done
based on certain hypotheses according to the data available. The emissions
associated with the transport of certain goods will be proportional to the percentage
that those goods represent of the total load carried.

The urban bus is a mode of public transport that offers citizens a range of
advantages, such as linking areas with no alternative means of transport, as well as
providing the benefits associated with less congestion and improved air quality
thanks to a decrease in private transport.

3.6 Air transport
To estimate the emissions associated with plane journeys, parameters are used for
each type of plane, such as distance covered (kilometres), take-off height and
cruising altitude, amongst others. Therefore, the associated emissions are not
proportional to the kilometres covered. The International Civil Aviation Organization
(ICAO) is a specialised agency of the United Nations that sets the necessary
standards and regulations for the safety, efficiency and regularity of air transport and
its environmental protection. The ICAO has developed a CO2 emissions calculator for
air travel based on a specific methodology. Verified by the ICAO, the methodology
applies the best publicly available industry data and considers factors such as type of
plane, route-specific data, passenger load factors and cargo carried.56
The ICAO CO2 emissions calculator is available at: ICAO Carbon Emissions
Calculator. To use the calculator, follow this procedure:
• Enter airport of origin in the 'From' field. If the user enters the name of the city of
origin, a drop-down list appears with the codes of the city's airports. Select the
airport of origin from the list.
• Enter destination airport in the 'To' field. If the user enters the name of the city of
destination, a drop-down list appears with the codes of the city's airports. Select
the destination airport from the list.
Once the airport of origin is selected, only an airport to which there is a direct flight
can be entered as a destination. Therefore, on flights with one or more stopovers,
each flight must be entered separately.
The example below shows the steps to follow for a flight with one stopover. To
calculate the emissions for a flight Barcelona (BCN) – Denver (DEN) with a stopover
in London (LHR) (round trip) for one economy-class passenger, follow the steps
below:
56
For more information on the ICAO method, see: ICAO Carbon Emissions Calculator. Version 5. June 2012 MODIFIED LINK.
The ICAO calculator does not consider the radiative forcing index or other multipliers because the scientific community has not
reached a consensus on their use (Questions and answers on the ICAO Carbon Emissions Calculator).

35
1. Select ticket type (My ticket is): choose from Economy Class or Premium Class
(Economy Premium, Business, or First). In the example, Economy Class.
2. Select the type of trip: One-Way or Round Trip. In the example, Round Trip.
3. Indicate how many passengers are taking the flight (Number of passengers). In
the example, one.
4. Airport of origin (‘From’ field): BARCELONA, ESP (BCN).
5. Destination airport (‘To’ field): LONDON (GBR) (LHR).
6. Click on Add a flight. This enables us to enter a second flight following a stopover
in London.
7. A new drop-down list is created automatically where the airport of origin is
LONDON (GBR) (LHR), enter DENVER, USA (DEN) in the ‘To’ field
8. Finally, calculate the CO2 emissions by clicking on Calculate.
The result obtained is 1,224.22 kg CO2, and if we click on More Details we can see
other data, such as:
• Distance covered on each flight: 1,146 km from Barcelona to London, and 7,491
km from London to Denver.
• Average fuel consumption (kg): 4,397 kg of fuel on the Barcelona–London stretch
and 59,670 kg of fuel on the London–Denver stretch.

Fugitive emissions
4.1 Fluorinated gases
The greenhouse gases (GHG) in the Kyoto Protocol include, amongst others, three
groups of fluorinated gases: hydrofluorocarbons (HFC), perfluorocarbons (PFC) and
sulphur hexafluoride (SF6). Fluorinated gases are used in various types of
products and applications, specifically and depending on the type of gas:
- HFCs are the most common group of fluorinated gases. They are used in
various sectors and in a number of applications, such as refrigerants in
refrigeration, air-conditioning and heat pump equipment, blowing agents for
foams, fire extinguishers, aerosol propellants and solvents.
- PFCs are generally used in the electronics sector and in the cosmetic and
pharmaceutical industry, and to a lesser extent in refrigeration in place of
CFC. In the past, PFCs were also used as fire extinguishers and can still be
found in old fire protection systems.
- SF6 is used mainly as an insulating gas, in high-voltage switchgear and as a
protective gas in magnesium and aluminium production.
To calculate the fugitive emissions of fluorinated greenhouse gases, the emission
factor given in the table in Annex 3 is applied to the quantity of fluorinated gas (unit
mass).
Fugitive emissions may be produced due to unwanted leaks of fluorinated gas. There
are various types of controls to detect such leaks. These controls may be standard,
routine checks on equipment containing 3 kilos or more of F-gas charge, post-repair
checks following detection of a leak, or start-up checks in recently installed
equipment. Likewise, equipment containing 300 kg or more of fluorinated gas must
40

41
have leakage detection systems which alert the operator on detection. When a leak
is detected, regardless of the type of check made, the quantity of fluorinated gas
added must be noted in the equipment records.
The following are just some examples of how to determine the F-gas charge (kg),
based on which potential GHG emissions are calculated:
A. Equipment labels.
B. Manual or technical specifications from the manufacturer, supplier or
services company.
C. Equipment records.
EXAMPLE OF FUGITIVE FLUORINATED GAS EMISSIONS
A plant has a heat pump with an F-gas charge of 45 kg. The heat pump does not have
a leak detector and during a routine check a leak is detected. It is repaired and 2 kg of
fluorinated gas (HFC-134a) is recharged. The associated CO2 emissions are calculated
as follows:
INITIAL FINAL
F-gas charge = 43 kg HFC-134a
F-gas charge = 45 kg HFC-134a CO2 emissions = 2 kg HFC-134a x
1,300 = 2,600 kg CO2-eq
Total associated emissions: 2,600 kg CO2-eq

Waste
5
5.1 Emissions from municipal waste management
To estimate the GHG emissions from municipal waste management, first establish
the amount of waste generated and the type of management it undergoes (separate
collection or otherwise).
The GHG emission factors included in this section consider:
• Municipal solid waste, that is, waste generated in households, shops, offices
and services, and waste not considered hazardous and that can be treated like
waste generated in the aforementioned places and activities. The following are
also considered municipal solid waste: waste from street, green space,
recreation area and beach cleaning; dead pets; discarded furniture, electric and
electronic equipment, clothes, batteries, utensils and abandoned vehicles; waste
and rubble from minor building and domestic repair work. Also included is
commercial waste, defined as waste generated by the retail or wholesale trade,
hotels and restaurants, bars, markets, offices and services. In terms of
management, waste from industry that could be considered municipal also falls
into this subgroup.
• The following fractions: paper and cardboard, glass packaging, light packaging,
organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW) and the non-segregated
fraction.
• CO2, CH4 and N2O emissions expressed in CO2-eq. In normal operating
conditions, waste management does not generate F-gas emissions (HFC, PFC
or SF6).
• The emissions generated from the moment the product becomes waste and is
put in a bin up to its final treatment. That is, direct and indirect emissions from
the complete management process: collection and transport, transfer plants,
42

43
pre-treatment plants, and treatment and final disposal plants. Likewise, and
under ISO 14064, part 1, ISO 14069, and the GHG Protocol, emissions savings
obtained from waste treatment processes are not considered.
If there is no separate collection, the emission factor is the same as that of the non-
segregated fraction, that is, 1,028.97 g CO2-eq/kg waste.
With separate collection, the emission factor varies according to the waste fraction.
The amount of waste generated may be given in different units:
A. kg waste per fraction.
B. m3
waste per fraction.
A. kg waste generated per fraction

• Non-segregated fraction: 1,028.97 g CO2-eq/kg waste
EXAMPLE OF EMISSIONS DERIVED FROM MUNICIPAL WASTE MANAGEMENT
An elderly care home generates 3,000 kg of waste a year. The home has never segregated
waste since it opened, but this year, the Management decided to segregate paper,
packaging, glass, organic matter and the non-segregated fraction, following the ‘Best
Practice Guidelines’ promoted by the Catalan Ministry of Health.
If we consider that the total amount of municipal waste has not varied from year to year, the
saving in emissions due to a change in waste management (from no segregation to waste
segregation into fractions) is calculated as follows:

So, segregating waste into fractions at source led to a saving in emissions at the home
equivalent to:

Annex 1
Estimate of emissions associated with events63
The holding of events involves GHG emissions, which can be estimated. This annex
covers the aspects to be considered in estimating GHG emissions associated with
the holding of events. It contains a non-exhaustive list, in that it cannot include every
aspect to be considered and therefore can be amended according to the nature of
the event for which we are estimating the GHG emissions.
When holding an event, first, define the type of event. It may be a symposium,
congress, conference, course, opening ceremony, official presentation, etc., and can
last any length of time (one-off or over several days).
Depending on the source of the emissions associated with it, the event can be
classed as:
• Emissions from energy consumption: fossil fuel consumption and electricity
consumption.
• Emissions from transport.
• Emissions from the use of materials and resources: consumption of materials
and resources other than fossil fuels and electricity.
To estimate emissions associated with each of the above, the calculation limits must
be determined. To do so, a series of key factors that condition the calculation must
be defined. These factors are:
• Emissions from energy consumption:
Define the spatial scope: venue where the event is held, accommodation for
out-of-town visitors, other.
Define the timeframe: only the days on which the event takes place, or
including assembly/dismantling days.
63
See also the Guide to Environmentally Friendly Events, which aims to serve as a tool for government agencies considering
organising an event, in the context of greening public procurement.

48
Define the scope of emissions: electricity consumption, air conditioning,
electrical equipment, fossil fuel equipment.
Identify the calculation method: for example, use of unit emission factors
(electricity mix, fossil fuel mix). The Guidance and the calculator it is based on are
useful tools in this respect.
• Emissions from transport:
Define the scope of mobility: number of attendees and journeys (origin and
destination)
− Trips by attendees (participants, organisers and speakers) from their home
town to the site of the event.
− Trips linked to specific event activities.
− Trips to accommodation by out-of-town visitors.
− Trips by logistics services (assembly services, material and service
providers).
− Other trips.
In order have this information available, assess the need to request
information on mode of transport and kilometres covered (or starting point and
destination) in the various journeys made by attendees.
Identify the calculation method: for example, unit emission factors for each
means of transport. The Guidance and the calculator it is based on are useful
tools in this respect.
• Emissions from the use of materials and resources:
Define the scope of materials and resources (raw materials, water, waste
generated).
Identify the calculation method: with the Guidance and calculator, emissions
from municipal waste management can now be estimated.
The emissions from each of these areas may be more or less representative of the
total emissions depending on the type of event. Each organisation can decide which

49
emissions categories it wishes to estimate for an event. It is important, however, to
include the more significant emissions categories in the calculation of total emissions.
The method for calculating the emissions associated with events will depend on the
type of data available. The table below shows the type of calculation that can be
done with this Guidance64

Annex 3 of the Guidance lists emission factors according to the data available on the activity.
65
In calculating emissions from transport, two groups are considered:
1. Emissions from organisation-owned transport; therefore, estimates are made based on data such as fuel consumption,
euros spent on fuel or distance covered, and make and model of vehicle (as per section 3 of the Guidance).
2. Emissions from the transport of people taking part: here the degree of estimation will be greater, because average
emission factors will have to be applied per type of vehicle (g CO2/km), as often the exact type of vehicle of each
participant is unknown.

50
Annex 2
Calculation of emissions in public authorities
Towns the world over, and in general the different geographical levels of government
agencies, have become aware of the changes taking place and the threats posed by
global warming. They have recognised the need to monitor and manage their
greenhouse gas emissions. By doing so, they can be prepared and establish public
policies and municipal actions that help to mitigate climate change and improve our
ability to adapt to the changes taking place.
The fight against climate change is a huge challenge in which the contribution of local
governments is essential, as many of their policies are capable of affecting
processes that alter the composition of the atmosphere.
Municipal emissions inventories, for instance, include GHG emissions derived
directly from town council activities, such as energy consumption for street lighting,
facilities and vehicle fleets; and also emissions on which town councils can act, albeit
indirectly: the domestic sector, services, transport, waste and water.
Therefore, two parallel levels of inventory can be established:
• Public Authority Inventory: includes emissions from local authority
operations (town council or any other public administration), that can be
calculated like those of any other organisation by applying this Guidance.
• Territorial Inventory: this includes all emissions in a municipality, region or
area defined according to the geopolitical limits of the Administration,
associated with the activities of its inhabitants and the facilities in the territory.
An inventory of these emissions could be comparable to national greenhouse
gas emissions inventories. Such inventories are more complex and require a
specific methodology, which is currently being developed. Within the
framework of ISO 14064, some organisations, such as the ICLEI and the
ADEME, amongst others, are preparing guides and recommendations on
drawing up these inventories.

51
The aim of this Annex is to provide town councils and other government agencies
with guidelines for calculating their GHG emissions at organisation level (Public
Authority Inventory). Specifically, it includes emissions related to the authorities'
direct activities, such as energy consumption (electricity and fossil fuels) for street
lighting, municipal or government facilities (town council, municipal education
centres, sports facilities) and municipal or government vehicle fleets.
As in any organisation, three scopes of emissions are defined:
1. Scope 1: direct emissions
This includes direct town council or administration emissions from sources they own
or manage.
This scope includes the following emissions categories:
- Emissions due to fossil fuel consumption in public authority facilities:
o Town Council or government agency offices
o Education centres
o Sports facilities
o Social and cultural centres, civic halls and libraries
o Other (markets, cemeteries, wastewater treatment plants...)
o Etc.
To estimate these emissions, see section 2.2 of this Guidance.
- Emissions generated by fossil fuel consumption in transport owned by the
government:
o Own transport fleet, municipal or government vehicle fleet.
o Urban public transport, owned or managed by the government or town
council.
o Intercity public transport, owned or managed by the government or
town council.

52
To estimate these emissions, see section 3 of this Guidance.
- Process emissions, if applicable. For example, emissions from waste
treatment in public authority-owned plants.
2. Scope 2: indirect emissions from electricity and heat generation
This includes emissions from the consumption of electricity, heating and cooling and
steam in government facilities generated by someone else’s facilities.
This scope includes the following categories:
- Emissions caused by electricity consumption in the aforementioned public
authority facilities.
- Emissions caused by electricity consumption for street lighting.
- Emissions caused by electricity consumption for traffic lights.
- Emissions caused by consumption of steam, heating or cooling in public
authority facilities.
To estimate these emissions, see section 2.1 of this Guidance.
3. Scope 3: other indirect emissions
This includes other indirect emissions from sources not government owned or
managed.
They include emissions from:
- Outsourced vehicle fleet. Examples of such vehicles (may vary according to
town council or authority):
o Street cleaning
o Municipal solid waste collection
o Police
o Beach cleaning
o Etc.

53
- Urban and intercity public transport not owned or managed by the public
authority.
- Activities related to employee transport and trips abroad.
To estimate these emissions, see section 3 of this Guidance.
- Treatment of waste generated in municipal or government facilities in
treatment plants not owned by the public authority.66
- Purchasing of materials and products, such as office material, paper, etc.
- Other indirect emissions.
EXAMPLE: EMISSIONS CALCULATION FOR A TOWN COUNCIL
A town council wants to calculate its own emissions, that is, its Public Authority
Inventory. It has therefore gathered data on energy consumption in its own operations,
as follows:
• Street lighting and traffic lights: 1,961,000 kWh (electricity)
• Facilities:
o Electricity: 1,942,500 kWh
o Natural gas: 137,140 m3
o Diesel: 15,450 l
• Own vehicle fleet:
o Diesel: 15,250 l
o Petrol: 1,786 l
• Outsourced vehicle fleet:
o Diesel: 122,000 l
o Petrol: 3,975 l
• Public transport:
o Urban (diesel): 46,795 l
o Intercity (diesel): 31,370 l
66
If the treatment plant is owned by the public authority, these emissions should be included in Scope 1 as direct process
emissions.

54
In accordance with the corresponding section of this Guidance (sections 2.1 - 2.2 on
calculating emissions associated with energy consumption and sections 3.1 - 3.4 on
emissions associated with consumption in transport), the town council's emissions are:
SOURCE EMISSIONS
Street lighting and traffic lights CO2 emissions = (1,961,000 kWh x
0.300 kgCO2/kWh) = 588,300 kg CO2
Facilities
• Electricity
• Natural gas
• Diesel
TOTAL
CO2 emissions = (1,942,500 kWh x 0.300 kg
CO2/kWh) = 582,750 kg CO2
CO2 emissions = (137,140 m3
x 2.15 kg
CO2/m3
) = 294,851 kg CO2
CO2 emissions = (15,450 l x 2.79 kg CO2/l) =
43,106 kg CO2
CO2 emissions = 582,750 + 294,851 +
43,106 = 920,707 kg CO2
Own vehicle fleet

• Urban (diesel)
• Intercity (diesel)
TOTAL
122,135 kg CO2
81,876 kg CO2
CO2 emissions = 122,135 + 81,876 =
204,011 kg CO2
Therefore, total emissions for the town council as a public authority are:
588,300 kg CO2 + 920,707 kg CO2 + 44,054 kg CO2 + 327,881 kg CO2 + 204,011 kg
CO2 = 2,084,953 kg CO2 (2,085 t CO2)
