When to use

Any country included in the AIB data set has Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs) that meet the Scope 2 guidance's quality criteria, meaning that market-based reporting is required alongside location-based. The residual emission factors should be applied to any electricity consumption for which there is no tariff-specific emission factor available.
