Transitional climate risks are caused by the transition to a low-carbon economy. Management of this group of risks requires the development of effective solutions to reduce the carbon footprint, including indirect energy emissions, which is impossible without reliable estimates. The accuracy of estimation of indirect greenhouse gases emissions from electricity largely depends on the choice of specific indicators of CO2 emissions per unit of electricity consumed. The article presents a comparative analysis of the values of such indicators: regional coefficients of indirect energy emissions of CO2, calculated on the basis of the Methodological Guidelines by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment of Russia, CO2 emission coefficient for the first synchronous zone of The Unified Energy System of Russia and CO2 emission coefficients for two price zones of The Unified Energy System of Russia, published by JSC «Trading System Administrator of Wholesale Electricity Market Transactions». The results obtained may be useful in selecting optimal parameters for calculating indirect greenhouse greenhouse gases emissions from electricity.
