Part 1. Greenhouse gas emissions inventory

Has the institution conducted a GHG emissions inventory within the previous three years that includes all Scope 1 and 2 emissions? :

Yes

A copy of the most recent GHG emissions inventory:

CEMP_SUNY-Morrisville_Final_2023.08_web.pdf

A brief description of the methodology and/or tool used to complete the GHG emissions inventory:

Full Campus Energy Audit (for baseline) as part of our Clean Energy Master Plan (CEMP), study and CEMP completed in August 2023 (Ramboll energy engineers, 3rd party).

Has the GHG emissions inventory been validated internally by personnel who are independent of the GHG accounting and reporting process and/or verified by an independent, external third party?:

Yes

A brief description of the GHG inventory verification process:

The GHG inventory was completed by the RAMBOLL energy engineering firm as part of our Clean Energy Master Plan (for baseline); they are a 3rd party engineering firm.

	Yes or No
Major stationary sources	Yes
Area sources	Yes
Mobile sources	Yes
Commuting	No
Off-site electricity production	Yes

None

A brief description of the methodology(ies) the institution used to complete its air emissions inventory:

Major Energy Audit completed during our Clean Energy Master Plan (CEMP).

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:

CEMP - Clean Energy Master Plan uploaded to the campus Sustainability website. For emissions figures, see Table 1.1 on page 28.

Note: OP-01 requested 3rd party verification of GHG - Green House Gas inventory, which was completed in AUGUST of 2023, as part of the SUNY Morrisville Clean Energy Master Plan (CEMP), via Ramboll Energy Engineering company, based on data from FY-2018-2019 and FY-2019-2020.

OP-02 requests data from our current Performance Year which is FY-2022-2023 (not the same as our 3rd party verivied CEMP data from FY-2018-2019 and FY-2019-2020, report published in August 2023), this difference shows a reduction of GHG over time.
