Scope 2 emissions arise from

  • A.fuel burnt in the organisation's own plant
  • B.the use of the organisation's products by customers
  • C.business travel by the organisation's employees
  • D.purchased electricity, heat or steam

Answer: D

Correct answer: purchased electricity, heat or steam

Scope 2 covers indirect emissions from energy the organisation buys and consumes: electricity, and purchased heat, steam or cooling. The emissions occur at the generator’s stack rather than the buyer’s, but the buyer caused them by taking the energy. Scope 2 exists as a separate category because it is under the buyer’s influence through both consumption and procurement, which is why it is reported both ways.
