# How should an electronics supplier in Bac Ninh report Scope 2 for its global buyers?

Canonical: https://senseible.earth/answers/bac-ninh-electronics-supplier-scope-2

Report location-based Scope 2 with Vietnam's published grid factor and, if you buy renewable power through a direct contract or certificates, a market-based figure as well. Electronics brands usually ask for both, plus monthly kWh by site.

## Two figures

- Location-based: kWh times Vietnam's latest grid factor from the environment ministry.
- Market-based: kWh covered by contracts or certificates at their own factor, the rest at a residual or grid factor.

## What brands ask for

- Monthly electricity use per site, from bills or meters.
- Contracts or certificates, with the volume and period they cover.
- A plan for raising the renewable share.

## Direct power contracts

Vietnam allows direct power purchase agreements for large users. Keep the contract and the delivery statements; brands will ask to see that the power matches the claimed period.

## What Senseible does here

Senseible reads fuel, electricity and production documents into dated, fingerprinted plant records, so the monthly intensity behind a figure can be traced to its source.
