Resumen
El presente estudio se desarrolló con el objetivo de calcular la huella de carbono organizacional de la empresa Seringas S.A. basado en la normativa UNE-EN ISO 14064-1:2019, se estableció el periodo de enero hasta diciembre del 2021 como límites operacionales de la medición y se realizó la cuantificación de emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero según las categorías establecidas en la norma de las cuales se derivó el consumo de combustible de fuentes móviles y recarga de extintores de dióxido de carbono como emisiones directas, y como parte de las emisiones indirectas se identificaron las emisiones provenientes del consumo de energía eléctrica, misma que fue calculada utilizando el factor de emisión establecido en el Sistema Nacional Interconectado del Ecuador para la región en donde se encuentra ubicada la organización, adicionalmente se caracterizó el transporte de los trabajadores como parte de las emisiones indirectas.
Se consideraron los bienes adquiridos en el área de producción, área administrativa y la generación de residuos sólidos como parte complementaria de las emisiones indirectas de su correspondiente categoría basada en la norma. El procesamiento y cálculo fue desarrollado mediante los lineamientos y metodologías establecidas en el GHG Protocol, Directrices del IPCC, Guías Nacionales y la propia norma, evidenciando como resultado un total de 1501,99 Ton/Co2equivalente correspondiente a los gases de efecto invernadero emitidos por la organización durante el año evaluado, de entre los cuales se destacó el desplazamiento de empleados como la actividad de mayor emisión representando el 99,19% del total de la Huella de Carbono Organizacional.
The present study was developed with the objective of calculating the organizational carbon footprint of the company Seringas S.A. based on the UNE-EN ISO 14064-1: 2019 standard, the period from January to December 2021 was established as operational limits of the measurement and the quantification of greenhouse gas emissions was carried out according to the categories established in the standard from which the consumption of fuel from mobile sources and recharge of carbon dioxide fire extinguishers were derived as direct emissions, and as part of the indirect emissions were identified the emissions from the consumption of electrical energy, which was calculated using the emission factor established in the National Interconnected System of Ecuador for the region where the organization is located, additionally the transportation of workers was characterized as part of the emissions indirect. Goods acquired in the production area, administrative area and the generation of solid waste were considered as a complementary part of the indirect emissions of their corresponding category based on the standard. The processing and calculation was developed through the guidelines and methodologies established in the GHG Protocol, IPCC Guidelines, National Guidelines and the standard itself, showing as a result a total of 1501.99 Ton/Co2equivalent corresponding to the greenhouse gases emitted by the organization during the year evaluated, among which the displacement of employees stood out as the activity with the highest emission, representing 99.19% of the total Organizational Carbon Footprint.
