This data point measures how much aviation fuel (e.g., Jet A, Jet A-1, or AvGas) your company used in the reporting year. It includes all fuel burned in company-operated or contracted aircraft under your operational control, and should be reported in liters.
What to include:
Include all aviation fuel consumed by aircraft that your company operates or controls, including chartered business jets, test flights, or drones with internal combustion engines.
Only include actual fuel use within the reporting year, and report in liters.
The data should reflect physical consumption, not just purchases, and can be sourced from flight logs, fuel slips, or aviation accounting systems.
What not to include:
Do not include emissions from commercial passenger flights booked via airlines, as these are typically part of Scope 3 business travel.
Also exclude any aviation fuel purchased for aircraft not owned or operated under your company’s control.
Electric drones or aircraft that use non-combustion energy sources should also be excluded.
Estimation Methodology:
If actual data for the last months of the reporting period isn’t available at the time of reporting, follow this approach:
Step-by-Step Estimation Rule:
Use actual monthly data for all available months in the reporting year.
Calculate the monthly average from the available months.
Multiply that average by the number of missing months to estimate those periods.
Add the estimated consumption to the actual year-to-date total.
