Electricity use, performance year (report kilowatt-hours):

	kWh	MMBtu
Imported electricity	136,211,700 Kilowatt-hours Date Revised: March 3, 2023 Yale University requested that AASHE Staff correct a mistake in this reporting field for the reason specified below. Previous Value: 138841447 Kilowatt-hours Explanation: Currently, we indicate that the hospital is not part of our institutional boundary (PRE-3), but the hospital IS part of our emissions boundary through The Climate Registry (TCR) which means it is included in the GHG data (it impacts our scope 2) and energy data we submitted. We realized this error in hindsight of our submission, as we had not worked with TCR when we submitted prior to 2022.	464,754.32 MMBtu
Electricity from on-site, non-combustion facilities/devices (e.g., renewable energy systems)	123,720,835 Kilowatt-hours	422,135.49 MMBtu

Stationary fuels and thermal energy, performance year (report MMBtu):

	MMBtu
Stationary fuels used on-site to generate electricity and/or thermal energy	3,326,133 MMBtu Date Revised: March 3, 2023 Yale University requested that AASHE Staff correct a mistake in this reporting field for the reason specified below. Previous Value: 4230718 MMBtu Explanation: Currently, we indicate that the hospital is not part of our institutional boundary (PRE-3), but the hospital IS part of our emissions boundary through The Climate Registry (TCR) which means it is included in the GHG data (it impacts our scope 2) and energy data we submitted.
