Can a Navi Mumbai colocation tenant claim the operator's renewable power?
Only for the share allocated to you in writing. Under the Scope 2 Guidance a market-based claim needs contractual instruments that are uniquely yours. If the operator buys renewable power, ask it to allocate certificates or contract volumes to your space; otherwise use its residual or grid factor.
What you need
- A document naming your allocation of renewable MWh or certificates.
- The same period as your consumption.
- Assurance that the operator does not count the same MWh for another tenant.
Without it
Report your share on the location-based method at 0.710 kg CO2 per kWh, times PUE, and leave the market-based figure at the grid or residual factor.
What Senseible does here
Senseible reads each site's monthly electricity bills into a dated Scope 2 record, keeps renewable purchase documents beside them for market-based reporting, and records diesel for backup generators as Scope 1. Customer shares use the allocation key you enter.
