DEFRA 2026, Sea travel by ferry — car passenger, Factors by Category sheet, ID 23_318_3189_11_1
Derived from direct physical activity measurements (litres, kilometres, kilograms). The most accurate approach where activity data exists.
Activity classification · This factor covers passenger ferry travel. Separate factors apply to road transport, ferry freight, and upstream well-to-tank (WTT) emissions.
* Scope 3 boundary · Report this factor in Scope 3 Category 6 when the passenger-ferry journey is business travel and the vessel is not owned or controlled by the reporting organisation. Use passenger-kilometres and choose the foot-passenger, car-passenger, or average-passenger record that matches the travel data available. Employee commuting, ferry freight, and owned or controlled vessels have different reporting boundaries. The separate upstream well-to-tank ferry component is not included.
