hybrid method which combines actual energy usage and
estimates based on office square footage and a Source
Energy Use Intensity figure from the U.S. Department of
Energy’s (DOE’s) Commercial Building Energy Consump-
tion Survey (CBECS). This is a common method used
when actual utility or energy use information is unavail-
able; however, offices may actually be performing better
than this standard metric.

Our efforts to increase energy efficiency and fuel econ-
omy translate to reduced greenhouse gas emissions
when normalized to headcount.
We have achieved a 14% decrease in combined
Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions from FY14 to
FY18, when normalized to headcount.

ing business travel and employee commuting. We track
emissions from rental vehicles but have not set a target
for Scope 3 emissions due to fluctuations in business
travel related to client needs. Efforts to reduce employee
commuting emissions include:
Scope 1 emissions include fleet fuel use from all TRC-
owned fleet vehicles and natural gas use for office heat-
ing. Breaking down our Scope 1 emissions, fleet emis-
sions are approximately 2.5 times greater than emissions
from office natural gas use. As we transition our busi-
ness and acquire more heavy-duty vehicles for project
work, our overall fleet emissions have increased on an
absolute and normalized basis. Our reduction target is
focused on our Class C-H vehicles because we have the
greatest ability to impact change in our purchasing.
