Behind this dataset
Same schema. As many rows as you need.
These 49 rows came out of a blueprint — 22 columns with generation rules behind each one. Open it in Data Factory to retune a column, add your own, wire in foreign keys, and run it at the size you actually need.
Rules it was built with
- Each row represents one agency’s monthly data.
- Report includes emission baseline, reduction achieved, initiative type, and estimated impact.
- Initiative types include energy efficiency, fleet electrification, green procurement, and digitalization.
- Flag rows where progress is below annual reduction targets.
- Capture both direct (scope 1) and indirect (scope 2/3) emissions.
