# How does a Sriperumbudur electronics supplier report Scope 2 to a global brand?

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

Report location based Scope 2 from kWh on your bills times 0.710 kg CO2 per kWh (CEA v21.0), and market based Scope 2 only for renewable power you can prove, such as open access contracts or certificates. Brands compare both and check the evidence.

## Location based

All grid kWh times the national factor, plus any diesel generator use in Scope 1.

## Market based

- Open access green power with supplier records.
- Renewable energy certificates retired for your site.
- Rooftop solar with meter readings.

## What brands check

That the renewable claim matches the kWh and period, and is not also claimed by someone else.

## What Senseible does here

Senseible reads electricity bills into dated, fingerprinted records and keeps location based and market based figures side by side, each with the factor and year used.
