| Methodology description | The Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate (NVE) publishes an annual electricity disclosure for Norway, as required under the revised EU Electricity Market Directive (2009/72/EC). Power suppliers are obliged to disclose information on their energy mix to consumers; suppliers that do not purchase Guarantees of Origin (GOs) must refer to NVE's calculated electricity disclosure in their consumer statements. The disclosure is based on European trade with GOs. Climatiq extracts two emission intensity of electricity disclosed for power suppliers in Norway when Guarantees of Origin (GOs) are not purchased. This factor is based on a European Attribute Mix which estimates emissions from electricity sold in Europe without documented GOs. It does not reflect the actual emissions from electricity generation or consumption within Norway and instead represents the emissions from electricity of unknown origin. |
