Metric objective
Calculate the efficiency of emission (carbon) intensity per occupant for the scenario
Measurement
Total Emissions / Total People

Total Emissions = For a proposed location (lease or owned), the system uses the Estimated CO2 per GSF field from the selected Building Class to calculate the Estimated CO2 Emissions; for an existing building, the system maps the Total CO2e (Carbon Footprint) Equity Share field to the Supply Summary; for an existing lease, the system maps the Annual Total CO2e field to the Supply Summary.

Total People = The sum of Quantity field from the planning data (demand) where the Planning Measure Type = Occupancy.
