Before You Start

In order to determine whether or not your facility is subject to the reporting requirements under the GHG Emissions Reporting program, you should first determine the total GHG emissions emitted from your facility, and assess whether these emissions meet or exceed the reporting threshold of 100 kilotonnes of CO2 equivalent. If they do, your facility must submit a report.

The GHG types that are covered by the reporting requirement are:

  • carbon dioxide (CO 2)
  • methane (CH 4)
  • nitrous oxide (N 20)
  • hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) (13 individual species)
  • perfluorocarbons (PFCs) (7 individual species)
  • sulphur hexafluoride (SF 6)
