Hello everyone,
I have a question regarding the CCF in relation to Scope 3 emissions – Activity 3.3.1 Upstream emissions of purchased fuels.
The values from 1.2 Company Fleet need to be transferred here. In our case, however, 1.2 was reported using the distance-based method. As a result, we do not have the actual fuel consumption in liters available.
For 3.3.1, however, only liters can be transferred – kilometers are not accepted.
How do you usually handle this situation?
Do you estimate the fuel consumption from the reported kilometers (e.g., using an average vehicle fuel consumption)?
Or is there a recommended approach or guidance for this case?
Thank you very much for your experiences!

Dear Felix,
This is a typical question.
The common best practice is to estimate liters of fuel based on the reported kilometers using average vehicle fuel consumption factors. This approach is accepted by the GHG Protocol and CCF as long as it is transparently documented and consistently applied. If possible, benchmark against national averages or OEM values to increase robustness. For future reporting periods, integrating fuel card or telematics data can help provide actual fuel volumes.
Feel free to reach out to me to discuss this in more detail.
Best regards,
Mark
