| 103 | Cities 2020 | 50543 | Halifax Regional Municipality | Canada | North America | City-wide Emissions | City-wide GHG Emissions Data | 1 | Stationary Energy: energy use – Scope 1 (I.X.1) | 1109842 | There is a >10% variance in the emissions reported for 2016 due to:1) new methodological tools (i.e., the GPC-based CityInSight energy & emissions model provided by the external consultants (Sustainability Solutions Group) we have retained to guide our HalifACT 2050 Climate Action Plan; 2) The activity data used for inventory have significantly improved since our 2014 inventory, based on a close calibration of energy consumption data with population, existing building stock and an induced transportation demand model (based on VKT); 3) The scopes for some of our activity have been modified based on the use of much higher quality data that was sourced directly from utilities; and,4) We have excluded sectors (i.e., IPPU) for which accurate emissions inventories are challenging to calculate based on a lack of sufficient data. HRM's emissions inventory is still GPC-based. |

| 107 | Cities 2020 | 50543 | Halifax Regional Municipality | Canada | North America | City-wide Emissions | City-wide GHG Emissions Data | 5 | Transportation – Scope 1 (II.X.1) | 1050876 | Our methodology for the calculation of 2016 transportation emissions has changed. We are now using activity-based transportation data (induced demand) instead of much coarser fuel sales data. Similarly, our transportation emissions no longer include marine, aviation and rail (freight & industrial) because there is little high-quality data available for those sectors, and they are challenging for the municipality to influence over time through its HalifACT 2050 Climate Action Plan and associated long-term emissions reduction targets. There is no commuter rail within the HRM boundary; Regional Council has voted against pursuing this transportation mode. |
