4. Calculate Emissions

Emissions are calculated based on the activity data and appropriate emission factors, categorized according to the GHG Protocol\'s Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 framework.

GHG Protocol 2026 Updates & Compliance

This analysis adheres to the proposed 2026 revisions of the GHG Protocol Scope 3 Standard. Key aspects include:

95% Completeness Rule: We aim to account for at least 95% of total relevant Scope 3 emissions to claim conformance, ensuring all major sources are quantified and justified exclusions are minimized.

Mandatory Data Disaggregation: Future reporting will require disaggregation of data by source type (primary vs. secondary). This report outlines where primary data would be critical.

Category 16: A new category for "other value chain activities" will be considered for relevance where applicable, though it\'s typically for facilitated emissions not covered in other categories.

2026 LSR Update

The Land Sector and Removals (LSR) Standard, published in January 2026 and effective January 1, 2027, has been considered. While specific land-use data for product inputs (like agricultural feedstocks) were not provided, its principles are acknowledged. The LSR Standard provides accounting for emissions from agricultural production and land use change, and for CO2 removals. It\'s important to note that forest carbon accounting is not included in the current version of the LSR Standard but will be addressed in future updates.

Emission Calculation Breakdown (Illustrative)

Scope 1: Direct Emissions (Operational Control)

Direct emissions from owned or controlled sources (e.g., process heating, fugitive emissions).

Illustrative Emission: 0.1 kgCO2e/unit (assumed for minor process emissions at factory).

Scope 2: Indirect Emissions (Purchased Energy)

Emissions from the generation of purchased electricity consumed by the company.

Total Energy for Production: 15 kWh/unit

Non-renewable energy share: 40%

Grid Emission Factor (China): 0.6 kgCO2e/kWh

Calculation: 15 kWh/unit * 0.40 (non-renewable share) * 0.6 kgCO2e/kWh = 3.6 kgCO2e/unit

Scope 3: Value Chain Emissions (Upstream & Downstream)

This includes all other indirect emissions from the value chain.

a. Upstream Emissions

Materials (Category 1: Purchased Goods and Services):

Total Illustrative Material Carbon Footprint from BOM: 5.35 kgCO2e/unit

Inbound Transport (Category 4: Upstream Transportation and Distribution):

Total Material Mass: 0.5 + 0.2 + 0.1 + 0.05 + 0.1 = 0.95 kg (approx 0.00095 tonnes)

Transport Distance: 2000 km

Emission Factor (Heavy Truck): 0.1 kgCO2e/tonne-km

Calculation: 0.00095 tonnes * 2000 km * 0.1 kgCO2e/tonne-km = 0.19 kgCO2e/unit

b. Downstream Emissions

Outbound Transport (Category 4: Downstream Transportation and Distribution):

Finished Product Mass (product + packaging): 0.95 kg (product) + 0.1 kg (packaging) = 1.05 kg (approx 0.00105 tonnes)

Transport Distance: 500 km

Emission Factor (Heavy Truck): 0.1 kgCO2e/tonne-km

Calculation: 0.00105 tonnes * 500 km * 0.1 kgCO2e/tonne-km = 0.0525 kgCO2e/unit

Last-Mile Delivery (Category 4: Downstream Transportation and Distribution):

Delivery Type: Parcel Delivery Van

Emission Factor: 0.5 kgCO2e/parcel

Calculation: 0.5 kgCO2e/unit

Use Phase (Category 11: Use of Sold Products):

Total Energy Consumption over Lifespan: 25 kWh

Average Grid Emission Factor (User Location): 0.4 kgCO2e/kWh

Calculation: 25 kWh/unit * 0.4 kgCO2e/kWh = 10.0 kgCO2e/unit

End-of-Life (EoL) Treatment (Category 12: End-of-Life Treatment of Sold Products):

Product Mass at EoL (approximate, excluding packaging already disposed): 0.95 kg

Non-Recycled Mass (1 - 0.70): 0.30 * 0.95 kg = 0.285 kg

EoL Disposal Emission Factor: 1.0 kgCO2e/kg

Calculation (Disposal component): 0.285 kg * 1.0 kgCO2e/kg = 0.285 kgCO2e/unit

Note: Circular/Take-back programs (iwikvdvems) and the 70% recyclability (elxugeyids) significantly reduce the net EoL impact by avoiding virgin material production, though the direct emissions from the recycling process itself would be accounted for in a more granular LCA. For this PCF, we focus on the disposal impact of the non-recycled portion.

5. Review & Report

Hotspots and Reliability

Based on the illustrative calculations, the primary carbon hotspots for "lujvsfwvir" are:

Use Phase (50%): The energy consumed during the product\'s 5-year lifespan is the single largest contributor, emphasizing the need for energy-efficient design and promotion of renewable energy at the user end.

Material Production (26.6%): The extraction and processing of raw materials, particularly electronic components and metals, represent a significant upstream impact.

Manufacturing (17.9%): While less than the use phase, the electricity consumed in production, even with 60% renewable energy, still contributes substantially due to the remaining reliance on grid electricity in China.

The reliability of this report is directly dependent on the accuracy and completeness of the input data. As illustrative data has been used for several key parameters, the quantitative results should be interpreted as indicative. For higher accuracy, primary data directly from suppliers and operations would be required for the Detailed Bill of Materials (pupgrsdp), Transport Mode (Select Mode), Transport Distance (kktzixlgug), Last-Mile Delivery Channel (Delivery Type), Renewable Energy Usage (ideunfvqlk), Energy Intensity (otzgqiviqy), Product Lifespan (ufpmmmflyy), Energy Consumption in Use (imkkukwvpw), and Recyclability Percentage (elxugeyids).

Recommendations for Carbon Reduction

Optimize Use Phase Efficiency: Focus on designing "lujvsfwvir" to be even more energy-efficient during its operational lifespan. This could involve lower power components, smarter energy management features, or promoting the use of renewable energy sources by end-users.

Sustainable Material Sourcing: Investigate opportunities to source lower-carbon materials for the plastic casing, metal components, and electronic board. This includes exploring recycled content, bio-based alternatives, and suppliers with strong decarbonization commitments. Engaging directly with suppliers to obtain primary data on material footprints (as per 2026 Scope 3 disaggregation requirements) will be crucial.

Enhance Renewable Energy in Production: While 60% renewable energy usage is good, further increasing this percentage in manufacturing operations (Scope 2) in China would directly reduce emissions. This could involve purchasing more renewable energy credits or investing in on-site renewable generation where feasible.

Logistics Optimization: Explore more carbon-efficient transport modes for both inbound and outbound logistics where possible, such as rail or sea freight for longer distances, and optimizing routes and vehicle loading factors.

Strengthen Circularity: Continue to promote and expand the existing circular/take-back programs (iwikvdvems) to maximize the actual recycling and reuse of product components, further reducing the end-of-life impact and material demand. This aligns with the stock-based accounting shift in the GHG Protocol\'s 2026 revisions, which rewards product durability and circularity.
