Sustainability Risk Due Diligence (SRDD) + Source Commentary + Site Visit
Building on normally limited national level electrical consumption data, PSA will seek obtain through contact with the relevant authorities, an understanding of the fuel sources that are used to produce the electrical power being provided through the national electricity grid to the specific site of interest. Combined with the utility’s consumption patterns from a review of 12 months of Subject-provided utility bills, PSA will combine this production source and usage information to calculate the most accurate assessment of the carbon impact of the site. Supporting integration with a client’s own potential carbon calculations, PSA will also provide the carbon tax context through a national level emissions profile and to identify if the Subject’s industry is within the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) source sectors in its operating jurisdiction. The report goes on to conduct interviews with adjacent businesses to seek to assess the overall availability and stability of the power provision from the national grid at the local site, as well as the need for supplemental power generation.
Emission Profile on the National and Sectoral Level
- Identify if the Subject’s country of jurisdiction imposes carbon taxes and employs emission trading systems
- Identify the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) source sectors of the Subject’s country of jurisdiction which the country has determined to be its top emitters.
- Identify national sources of electricity and energy supply.
Survey of Disclosed Data and On-Site Operations
- Review disclosed materials from the Subject on power requirements and fuel source(s) and map out power sources being utilized in the manufacturing process and logistics on site.
- Conduct interviews with 4 sources from adjacent businesses to obtain direct data on hours of available electricity, frequency of brownout, blackout, load shedding and the seasonal or regular need for alternative energy sources etc.
- Communicate with, and as required, visit the relevant Electricity Authority to seek to collect information on the fuel source and stability of power being provided to the Local site. Specifically seeks to identify: 1) available electricity production capacity to site 2) consistency in supply feedstock for national grid 3) presence of other factors that may limit power delivery to the site.
- Conduct overt Interviews with the Subject and other relevant sources to 1) identify annual power consumption from national grid based on 12 latest electricity bills, 2) understand additional diesel generator usage and fuel consumption patterns, and 3) identify percentage of electricity sourced from solar or other renewable resources.
- Provide a calculation of GHG emissions from on the power consumption profile obtained through the above. (ClimateWatch Data and International Energy Agency)
