Secondary data includes industry$-$average data $($e$.$g$.,$ from published databases, government statistics, literature studies, and industry associations$),$ financial data, proxy data, and other generic data. In certain cases, companies may use specific data from one activity in the value chain to estimate emissions for another activity in the value chain. This type of data $($i$.$e$.,$ proxy data$)$ is considered secondary data since it is not specific to the activity whose emissions are being calculated. Secondary data usually provides more reliable estimates when compared to primary data obtained from specific suppliers.

DU Chancellor stated that within the next three years, $100\%$ of the University of Denver$$s electricity use will be powered by renewable energy, resulting in an additional $40\%$ reduction of DU's current carbon footprint. DU will build additional on$-$campus solar arrays, as well as six off$-$site solar projects in Colorado, which will provide $23$ megawatts of clean energy to the campus. This renewable energy investment plan will cut DU's emissions in which scope?
