Global warming is increasing at a pace that requires immediate action to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions - especially CO2. This applies to companies of all sizes and industries. The ISO 14064 standard provides clear guidelines and requirements for quantifying and verifying emissions in a GHG inventory - and does so at both the organizational and project levels.
Information about ISO 14064
The ISO 14064 series of standards consists of three standards. ISO 14064-1 is the basis for accounting for a company's greenhouse gas emissions, i.e. for establishing its corporate carbon footprint (CCF). The standard provides information on the principles and requirements for planning, developing and reporting GHG inventories within a company.
Who is corporate carbon footprint (CCF) verification based on ISO 14064-3 suitable for?
The option of CCF verification is open to companies in all sectors and organizations such as municipalities, public authorities or associations. It is aimed at anyone who wants to make a contribution to climate protection, increase confidence in communicating their CO2 footprint, and improve their external image by focusing on sustainability and climate management. Finally, verification takes into account at an early stage any expected future legal and customer-specific requirements.
What are the benefits of an ISO 14064-3 verification?
The effects of climate change are already unmistakable today. In order to reverse the trend, all social forces are called upon to make their contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gases (GHG). At the same time, political pressure on companies and organizations has been growing since the Paris Agreement on climate protection. The ISO 14064 series of standards offers the following benefits for your company:
Climate protection as part of the corporate culture
Increased confidence in your company
Transparency in the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions
Strengthening of your competitiveness
