3 Terms and Definitions
The terms and definitions defined in GB/T 19596, GB/T 32150, ISO 14064-1:2018, and the following apply to this document.
3.1 greenhouse gas
Gaseous components of the atmosphere, both natural and anthropogenic, that absorb and emit radiation at specific wavelengths within the spectrum of infrared radiation emitted by the Earth's surface, the atmosphere, and clouds.
[Source: GB/T 32150-2015, 3.1]
Note: Greenhouse gases covered in this document include carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), nitrous oxide (N₂O), nitrogen trifluoride (NF₃), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF₆).
3.2 reporting entity
A corporate enterprise or an independent accounting unit treated as a legal entity that has greenhouse gas emissions.
[Source: GB/T 32150-2015, 3.2]
3.3 traction battery production enterprise
An independent accounting unit whose main business is the production of traction batteries, including lithium-ion, sodium-ion, nickel-metal hydride, and other traction batteries.
3.4 fuel combustion emission
Greenhouse gas emissions generated during the oxidative combustion of fuels.
[Source: GB/T 32150-2015, 3.7]
3.5 process emission
Greenhouse gas emissions resulting from physical or chemical changes other than fuel combustion during production, waste treatment, disposal, and other processes.
[Source: GB/T 32150-2015, 3.8]
3.6 emission from purchased electricity and heat
Greenhouse gas emissions occurring in the production process of electricity and heat corresponding to the purchased electricity and purchased heat (steam, hot water) consumed by the reporting entity.
[Source: GB/T 32150-2015, 3.9]
3.7 main production system
The system constituted by the production and operation processes of traction battery manufacturing enterprises.
3.8 auxiliary production system
Production installations within the plant area configured for the main production system, including processes, facilities, and equipment for power, electricity supply, water supply, laboratory analysis, mechanical repair, warehousing, transportation, etc.
3.9 subsidiary production system
Production command systems (plant headquarters) and departments or units within the plant area that serve production (e.g., staff canteens, workshop bathrooms, health stations, etc.).
3.10 activity data
Quantitative measure(s) of an activity resulting in greenhouse gas emissions.
[Source: GB/T 32150-2015, 3.12]
Note: Such as consumption of various fossil fuels, usage of raw materials, purchased electricity, purchased heat, etc.
3.11 emission facto
Coefficient that quantifies the emissions per unit of activity data.
[Source: GB/T 32150-2015, 3.13]
3.12 carbon oxidation rate
Percentage of the carbon in the fuel that is completely oxidized during combustion.
[Source: GB/T 32150-2015, 3.14]
3.13 global warming potential; GWP
A factor describing the radiative forcing impact of one mass-based unit of a given greenhouse gas relative to an equivalent unit of carbon dioxide over a given time horizon.
[Source: GB/T 32150-2015, 3.15]
3.14 direct GHG emissions
GHG emissions from GHG sources that are owned or controlled by the organization.
Note: Direct emissions are also referred to as Scope 1 emissions.
[Source: ISO 14064-1:2018, 3.1.9]
3.15 indirect GHG Emissions
GHG emissions that are a consequence of an organization’s operations and activities, but that arise from GHG sources that are not owned or controlled by the organization.
[Source: ISO 14064-1:2018, 3.1.11]
