Upload a stationary combustion invoice (gas, diesel, heat)

Stationary combustion — fuel burned in boilers, furnaces or on-site generators — is Scope 1. Each consumption record is linked to a facility, so make sure the facility exists first (see "Setting up your facilities in Dcycle").

The file goes to a processing queue while Dcycle’s AI reads the fuel type, billing period and quantity consumed. Once it’s done, assign it to the right facility category and it’s added to your Combustion records.

Step 10

Step 11

Enter each invoice in whatever unit your supplier bills — kWh, m³, litres or kg. Dcycle converts and applies the right calorific value and emission factor for the fuel and country automatically; don’t convert units by hand.

Step 12

For many invoices at once, use the bulk upload option instead — download the CSV/Excel template, fill one row per invoice (facility, fuel type, start/end date, quantity, unit), and drag it back.
