Step 4 - Import your base case
Overview
To properly track the impact of your initiatives on emissions, you must configure Activities, Fuel Types, Grid Electricity, Settings, and Targets within the Emissions Module.
Step 1 - Configure settings
The Settings section allows you to configure the time horizons, baseline and emissions program start and end dates for your decarbonisation program. These must be configured first.
Step 2 - Configure Fuel Types
The Fuel Types section displays the list of fuels that are used by the organisation. An out-of-the-box data set with a list of fuels and corresponding information for each is available, but you should review and update these according to what is relevant for your location. You can also input new fuel types if it isn't within the default data set provided.
Step 3 - Grid Electricity
The Grid Electricity section contains information for Grid Electricity Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions in each relevant location that the organisation operates in. The Grid Electricity emissions data goes up until the last Horizon year set in Settings.

Step 4 - Import your base case
The base case is the starting point for managing your decarbonisation program in WiredUp. It provides a baseline for historical and baseline forecasted consumption and emission data that can be referred to when doing scenario planning. This is also where the baseline year that is used for comparison purposes is sourced from.
Import your baseline year as explained in Importing Fuel Consumption Data for Emissions
Step 5 - Configure Targets
The Targets section allows users to set global (enterprise-wide) or site-level targets, which are then displayed on charts to compare actual or forecasted performance.
Step 6 - Configure Activities
The Activities section contains all activities conducted by the organisation that have carbon emissions potential. It maps the activities to its corresponding department (configured in Organisational Structure), which Scenario it applies to, and the applicable Fuel Types that are used in the activity.
