The Greenhouse Gas Protocol has defined three scopes to categorize the different kinds of emissions created across an organization’s wider value chain, including its suppliers and customers.

Accurate carbon footprint assessment, target-setting, tracking and management are paramount, as climate disclosures become mandatory not only for building certification and environmental reporting, but also for financial regulation.

Complementing the work by Oxford Net Zero’s Net Zero Tracker and the UN’s Race to Zero, which assess the qualitative integrity of corporate targets, the Net Zero Score framework will be a tool for investors, customers, researchers, and businesses to evaluate emissions reduction progress in a comparable way. 

Drawing on the success of multiple SF₆-free projects in the field since 2015 for 12- to 40.5-kV MV gas-insulated switchgear with reliable low-pressure design, this whitepaper guides readers through the relevant steps needed for a successful migration.

Gas-insulated switchgear, widely used in MV secondary substations, conventionally contain SF₆, which has excellent dielectric and arc-extinguishing properties, but, at the same time, is the world’s most potent greenhouse gas, with a global warming potential 25,200 times that of CO₂.
