A PPA mainly affects Scope 2 , but it also has important Scope 3 consequences depending on how it’s structured (on-site vs off-site, physical vs virtual). Scope 1 (Direct emissions) — limited PPA impact What Scope 1 looks like for a PPA buyer Gas boilers for heat Company-owned vehicles On-site fuel use Refrigerant leakage A PPA may not directly reduce Scope 1 , because these emissions are from fuels you burn yourself. Mitigation actions aligned with a PPA PPAs become powerful when paired...

In the UK (and globally), Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions are categories used in carbon accounting under the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol . They help organisations understand where their emissions come from and how to reduce them . Scope 1: Direct emissions (you control them) What they are: Emissions from sources owned or controlled by your organisation.
