Abstract

This report summarises trends in the University’s Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions up to and including academic year 2020-21. It also includes estimates of other emissions that the University chooses to report but which are not formally included in the Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions as defined by the Greenhouse Gas Protocol.

The University’s Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions were estimated to be 115.4 kT CO2e in 2020-21 with an additional ‘induced’ 12.7 kT CO2e emissions under additional reporting. Total emissions under Scope 1-3 reduced by 8% from 2018-19 to 2020-21 largely due to reductions in emissions from Scope 2 Purchased Electricity and COVID-19 affected Scope 3 Business Travel.
