METHODOLOGY

What is the EcoRating?

The Biyiud EcoRating for cities is the decarbonization score obtained in the last 12 months from grid electricity savings, with results normalized against all cities in the same population category. The calculations are fed by real and verified data obtained from reading all electricity consumption points in the country.

When a person registers in the Biyiud App, they receive the active EcoRating points of their city.

Sources and boundaries of city GHG emissions

Scope 1

Pending

Emissions from sources located within the city boundaries

Scope 2

Emissions resulting from the use of grid-supplied energy, heat, steam and/or cooling within the boundaries

Grid-supplied energy

Scope 3
