Clarification on Emission Factors Data Data

Several customer's have had confusion on 1. when the data is uploaded 2. when the data is for. Ie. Factor Name : shows 2019, Effective date: 2019, Published Date: 2020. Factor Source: 2021.

Knowledge Base provides good insight to all these values, but even still customer's have confusion. Idea: To display the attached (or something similar) and after each title, put a description within knowledge base.

Example:

Factor Name: Location and date of data
Effective To:
Published From: Date Data was released
Published To:
Description:
Factor Source: Date Data was released for the Effective Date

Something like that

    Hi Carrie - thanks for raising the idea. We have reviewed this item and made an update to IEA 2021 and 2022 factor names in the platform.

    The new IEA factor name contains three pieces of information:

    • Original factor name, that includes: country the factor is for and its effective year

    • Factor Source - the document name that the IEA factor is sourced from

    • Publish Dates - the date period the factor is meant to be used for, if using ‘Published Dates’ method

    For example, “Albania Electricity - 2019;IEA Emission Factors 2021;Published for 2022” can be interpreted as that the factor is for the country of Albania with effective year of 2019, and it is obtained from the document ‘IEA Emission Factors 2021’ which was most likely released in Sep or Oct of 2021, and the factor will only be used for electricity data that fall into the next calendar year which is 2022, if using ‘Published Dates’ method.

    Full factor details can be reviewed in either the preview panel of the ‘Monthly Data’ page, or via the ‘Emission and Energy Factors’ report.


    The knowledge base article for IEA factors will also be updated to include above contents in its next release window (in about one or two weeks time).
