Supplementary notes

These emissions include those derived from the direct consumption of energy (natural gas and diesel, and additionally, in the particular case of Mexico, gasoline and diesel for automobiles and LPG) and correspond to scope 1, defined by the GHG Protocol standard. To calculate these emissions, the emission factors DEFRA 2020 for 2020 and DEFRA 2019 for 2019 were applied

These emissions include those derived from electricity consumption and correspond to the scope 2 defined by the GHG Protocol standard. In both 2020 and 2019 the IEA (International Energy Agency) emission factors for 2017 have been used. - Indirect Electricity Emissions - Market-based: zero emissions have been considered for green electricity consumed in Germany, Spain, Portugal and UK; also, it has been considered that in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Poland and USA, part of electricity consumption is green energy. This altogether has meant a reduction of 153,582 tons of CO2 equivalent in 2020 and 138,660 in 2019. For the rest of the electrical energy consumed, the emission factor of the IEA corresponding to each country has been applied
