APPENDIX A: WEATHER CORRECTED EMISSIONS
The carbon emissions for 2009/10 presented below include a weather correction calculation that is applied to the carbon emissions created from the consumption of natural gas to take account of the weather experienced during the time period the data relates to. They are useful as a comparison to the absolute emissions presented in the report as they indicate possible factors affecting our emissions data.
