Beingcert ISO 14064 (GHG Accounting and Verification) : Lead Auditor
A globally accepted standard, ISO 14064, enables organizations to measure, manage, and report their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The ISO 14064 certification is a trusted credential that verifies the knowledge and skills in Greenhouse gas (GHG) accounting, reporting, and verification based on ISO 14064 standards. Organizations that follow the ISO 14064 standard enhance credibility, transparency, and reinforce their commitment to sustainability and climate goals.
The ISO 14064 is divided into three parts, each addressing a different aspect of GHG accounting and verification, namely:
ISO 14064-1: Organizational GHG Inventory
This part focuses on the principles and requirements for measuring and reporting GHG emissions and removals at the organizational level. It assists organizations in designing, managing, and verifying GHG inventories to ensure reliable and consistent reporting.
ISO 14064-2: Project-level GHG Quantification
ISO 14064-2 focuses on project or activity-specific actions aimed at reducing emissions or increasing removals, including the development of baselines, monitoring, quantification, and reporting project-level GHG emissions. It provides a foundation to verify and validate GHG projects.
ISO 14064-3: GHG Verification and Validation
ISO 14064-3 establishes the methodology for verifying and validating GHG statements, including inventories, project emissions, and product carbon footprints. It details the planning, assessment, and evaluation processes required to ensure the accuracy and credibility of reported data.
Why is ISO 14064 certification important?
Becoming certified with ISO 14064 has its benefits, such as:
- Enhanced credibility and GHG reporting transparency
- Standardization of emissions measurement and monitoring
- Streamlining policy and regulatory compliance
- Supporting climate change sustainability efforts.
