[edit] Other meanings

Energy and Carbon Reporting Framework, Operational Energy and Carbon Information Exchanges for Government Soft Landings, published by the Construction Innovation Hub in October 2021, defines diversities as: ‘A level of variability in equipment energy use and emissions as details become known and refined. Diversities are estimated (to increasing levels of accuracy) from known specification details, power efficiencies, operating parameters and subsequent patterns of asset use.’
