Output-Based Performance Standard (OBPS) Emissions (tonnes CO 2 e/MWh) 1
This measure is calculated based on a numerator of total combustion/flaring greenhouse gas emissions from transmission operations, and a denominator of total load-corrected MWh of output from compressor engines. The units are tCO ² e/MWh. This metric reflects requirements under the federal Output-Based Pricing System. Scope 1 and 2 emissions from SaskEnergy operations. This includes emissions from transmission and distribution operations (as reported to Environment and Climate Change Canada) plus emissions associated with heat and electricity for buildings and equipment used for operations.

Provincial and federal legislation requires that spills and/or releases of certain substances are reported to the appropriate regulatory body if the quantity of spilled materials exceeds the threshold volume. Threshold volumes are set for each substance or each category of substances. Spills and gas releases exceeding the volume threshold defined by regulatory bodies must be reported externally.

1 GRI 305. This measure was introduced in 2020-21. 2 GRI 305 3 The significant decrease in emissions in 2019-20 is largely due to more accurate emissions factors. 4 Yearly targets have been set, starting in 2022-23, to 2030 to align with the corporate vision of a 35 per cent reduction in emissions from operations by 2030. 5 GRI 302-4 6 Yearly targets will be set starting in 2022-23 once a baseline is established in 2021-22.
