As a CIIP user (reporter and analyst), I want the AR5 GWP values to be in effect, so that I have accurate CO2e calculations for my emissions
Closed this issue · 4 comments
Description:
BC is using now AR5 GWP values (https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/environment/climate-change/ind/reporting-emissions/2023/ggrica_bulletin_025.pdf)
Acceptance Criteria:
Given I am an industrial reporter
When I fill out my application for 2022 reporting year
And I am on the emissions tab
Then I see AR5 GWP values
And the calculations reflect that
Given I am a CIIP analyst
When I view 2022 reporting year applications
Then I see AR5 GWP values
And the calculations reflect that
Given I am a CIIP analyst
When I view applications before 2022 (2021 and before)
Then I see AR4 GWP values
Dev checklist
- ciip gas table now needs temporal column (
reporting_year_start,reporting_year_end) anddescription - new data for AR5 GWP values in the
gasprod data - Anywhere using that table now needs to fetch the correct gas data depending on the application reporting year
- Tests for the logic where we select the proper gas
Hey team! Please add your planning poker estimate with Zenhub @dleard @Sepehr-Sobhani @BCerki @JoshLarouche @gurjmatharu @sam-warren
What calculations needs to change as part of this?
@BCerki In the application process, both reporters and analysts see a conversion of emissions to tCO2e (tonnes of CO2 equivalent) - the GWP (global warming potential) are numbers for each gas that compare it with CO2. So CO2 has a GWP of 1, and all the other gasses a factor of that.
