Climate Action Lists (CARIP)

Electricity Emissions Factor Methodology Update for Local Government Carbon Neutral Government Reporting

Aligning the methodologies to calculating EEF values for reporting obligations under both the Carbon Neutral Government Regulation and GGIRCA will provide a single, consistent approach to reporting electricity emissions across the province. This will allow for comparability in emissions data for different sectors and ensure that government is held to the same standard of reporting for its corporate emissions as industry.

The following Climate Action Lists were developed from the Climate Action Revenue Incentive Program (CARIP) reports.

The reports provide valuable insight into the wide range of climate actions being implemented by BC local governments to move forward on their Climate Action Charter goals.

Since 2015, CARIP reporting process uses a single online survey – the CARIP Climate Action/Carbon Neutral Progress Survey. The online survey has been simplified to make reporting easier. More detail on the CARIP reporting format is available here.

The Climate Action Lists are in searchable Excel format which are divided by size of community, community and corporate actions and a variety of action categories.
