Question Location based vs. Market based

(3) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 35
Dear community, 
 
We received a question from a client concerning market based calculations versus location based. 
 
Context
They have a PPA that states they buy all of the produced electricity from 2 wind turbines (2MW) and 30% of the power generated by a hydroelectric power station.
The rest of the consumption is location based, without any other certificate / contract. 
 
Goal
They want to calculate the total amount of purchased electricity: location based
Then they want to calculate the positive impact of the turbines and hydroelectric station > compare this to location based and see how emissions are lower. 
 
Question
Is the calculation as simple as total amount of electricity in MWH minus what was generated for the PPA (Wind+water)? 
How to insert / format the data to calculate this? Because we would need both in the system: TOTAL amount of electricity in location based, but part of these records would also be in the system as market based, but they can't be duplicates? for example:
 
First calculation 
100 GREY (location based) > emission calculation 
 
Second calculation 
60 GREY (location based) + 40 GREEN (PPA) > emission calculation 
 
But 100 and 60 GREY can't be duplicates in the system of course. 
 
Hope someone can help me out on this. 

Thank you so much in advance!
