Data Quality Score
A PCAF metric ranging from 1 (highest quality, audited data) to 5 (lowest quality, estimated data) that indicates the reliability and accuracy of emissions data used in calculations.
In practice
The score is not a grade of the bank's effort. It describes the evidence behind one figure: a meter reading scores better than a bill, a bill better than a sector average. A low score is allowed if the method and the path upward are written down.
Put the term to work on a real portfolio.
Bring one sector. We will show how data quality score is calculated, graded and recorded, using the files you choose to share.
