General description:
The Emission Changes section provides a detailed view of how the Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) evolves over time. This area enables users to analyze year-over-year changes in both quantities and emission factors for each scope contributor, offering valuable insights into the drivers behind PCF variations. By tracking these changes, users can easily identify trends, understand the sources of emission shifts, and uncover opportunities for improvement.
Filters :
At the top of this section, users can apply filters to customize their analysis. Filters typically include:
- Finished Product
- Scope Contributor
- Reference Year
These filters allow users to focus on specific products, contributors, or time periods, making the analysis more targeted and relevant.
Two Side Panels:
Upper Panel: Scope Contributions to PCF This panel displays the detailed contributions of each scope (such as raw materials, energy, or other relevant categories) to the overall Product Carbon Footprint. It helps users quickly identify which scopes are responsible for changes in the PCF from year to year. | |
Lower Panel: Emission Factors and Usage Factors The lower panel provides a breakdown of emission factors and usage factors for each contributor. Users can drill down to see which specific raw materials or processes are driving changes in emissions, and examine their individual emission and usage factors for deeper analysis. |
