Part 1. Greenhouse gas emissions inventory

Has the institution conducted a GHG emissions inventory within the previous three years that includes all Scope 1 and 2 emissions? :
Yes

A copy of the most recent GHG emissions inventory:
A brief description of the methodology and/or tool used to complete the GHG emissions inventory:
The adopted approach consists of evaluating the GHG emissions associated to the university activities. It concerns the 4 perimeters of the campus (UM6P 1st Extension, the Green Energy Park, The experimental farm and ASARI.
The Carbon Footprint carried out follows the GHG Protocol Corporate Standard, developed by the World Resources Institute and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development. And this by using both tools "Bilan Carbone", developped by the Association of Bilan Carbone, and SIMAP.
This project has been conducted by the sustainable developement department in collaboration with a consulting firm. It covers the Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 and it’s based on the Fiscal Year 2021.

Has the GHG emissions inventory been validated internally by personnel who are independent of the GHG accounting and reporting process and/or verified by an independent, external third party?:
Yes

A brief description of the GHG inventory verification process:
The GHG Inventory have been verified by an independent external third party who made sure that the accounting standard was used accurately and that the data obtained meets the standard

Part 2. Air pollutant emissions inventory

Has the institution completed an inventory within the previous three years to quantify its air pollutant emissions?:
Yes

Annual weight of emissions for::
Weight of Emissions
Nitrogen oxides (NOx) 441.18 Metric tons
Sulfur oxides (SOx) 1,814.44 Metric tons
Carbon monoxide (CO) 38.66 Metric tons
Particulate matter (PM) 1,031.90 Metric tons
Ozone (O3) 0 Metric tons
Lead (Pb) 0 Metric tons
Hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) 0 Metric tons
Ozone-depleting compounds (ODCs) 0 Metric tons
Other standard categories of air emissions identified in permits and/or regulations 0 Metric tons

Do the air pollutant emissions figures provided include the following sources?:
Yes or No
Major stationary sources Yes
Area sources No
Mobile sources Yes
Commuting Yes
Off-site electricity production Yes

None
A brief description of the methodology(ies) the institution used to complete its air emissions inventory:
The atmospheric pollutants quantified in the context of this study are due to the combustion of fuels (Diesel & Butane) and the production of off-site electricity. The emission factors for these pollutants are obtained from scientific publications and international databases.

Optional Fields

Gross Scope 2 GHG emissions from purchased electricity (location-based):
7,273.27 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent

Gross Scope 2 GHG emissions from imported thermal energy (location-based) :
0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent
