Operational Energy Use WBLCA stage 6 Question

Keep in mind that procuring RECs does not decrease the site’s electricity use; it modifies the environmental impacts associated with the electricity use.

Within the LCA, you may want to consider keeping the electricity use the same but creating separate characterization factors associated with the portion of electricity covered by the RECs. Not all RECs have zero emissions. You should use the emission factors associated with the RECs that were procured.
