"Hey there! π The 'Carbon-Free Energy matching score' on our platform helps highlight how effectively a facility utilizes low-carbon periods for its energy consumption. It's primarily based on the hourly carbon emission intensity of the grid, which varies throughout the day. By choosing to operate more during low-carbon intervals and adjusting flexible electric loads, facilities can greatly reduce their overall emissions. Our platform takes these factors into account to give you a score that reflects your carbon-aware energy consumption. The insights and guidelines for this score are presented in our detailed dashboards. These dashboards guide users on the best times to use or avoid electricity to be more carbon-friendly. Hope that clears things up! ππ"
ππOn what criteria is the 'Carbon-Free Energy matching score' on the platform established, and could you elucidate the protocol governing its determination?
