Just launched: Carbon Emissions Inventory 2024
Quantifying the emissions impact of electricity consumption – and conservation efforts – is crucial for planning climate actions, whether it’s a government policy or upgrades and behaviour shifts at home. TAF’s latest research greatly improves such quantifications.
In order to decide which GHG reduction strategies to pursue, TAF looks at the quantity of reductions each approach has the potential to achieve. Central to these calculations are the emission factors – i.e. how much carbon is associated with each unit of energy consumed or saved. The challenge is that electricity emission factors can […]
In the first installment of our GHG quantification series, ABCs of Counting GHGs, we looked at different scenarios of mandating net zero buildings. Now we’ll take a look at how electric vehicles (EVs) can help us achieve Ontario’s ambitious emissions reductions targets, recently legislated under the Climate Change Mitigation and Low-Carbon Economy Act. In 2014, […]
When you’re in the business of carbon reduction, how do you come up with the data to account for the actual amount of emissions released into or reduced from the atmosphere? TAF follows a complex greenhouse gas (GHG) quantification process every time we evaluate an opportunity to fund or finance a project or pursue a […]
