Discover the basics and best practices of CO₂ in accordance with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHGP) with our compact white paper.
In around 20 pages, we show you how to set up a compliant corporate carbon footprint balance sheet - from the accounting boundary (equity share, financial/operational control) to the definition of the base year and consistent recalculation in the event of structural changes.
You will learn how Scope 1, Scope 2(market-based vs. location-based) and Scope 3 emissions are systematically recorded, categorized and evaluated using reliable emission factors. We explain data quality (primary vs. secondary), allocation rules, the selection of suitable methods (activity-based vs. spend-based, hybrid approaches) and how to deal with data gaps and double counting.
This allows you to create a transparent, verifiable CO₂ in accordance with GHGP - as a foundation for effective climate management, credible reporting and measurable decarbonization.
