This help page describes the data report for public bodies called ‘Future energy projects'. This report illustrates the impact of planned and proposed projects on your future energy consumption, CO2 and gaps to the targets.
- This report comprises a header and a series of charts that are grouped in multiple report tabs and sub-tabs. Each of the tabs presents data in a similar structure and format.
- There is also a spreadsheet report available via the ‘Download XLS’, which contains additional data not shown in the charts.
- Name of your organisation and its PSO ID.
- ‘Last year for which data reported’ indicates the most recent year for which data is shown in the report. Note that the data for this year could be incomplete, e.g. because you have not yet inputted some of your data.
- ‘Data status’ indicates how complete the data is for the most recent year.
This tab provides different breakdowns of the impact of energy projects that have been reported with the status 'planned'.
For an explanation of project statuses, see ‘project status’ in energy projects.
