ISO 14064-2, is the second part of the ISO 14064 standard and provides comprehensive guidance for organizations on measuring, monitoring and reporting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and removals. This part focuses specifically on the implementation of greenhouse gas projects such as renewable energy applications and energy efficiency measures.
The main purpose of the standard is to enable organizations to measure their carbon footprint more accurately and transparently, providing them with a systematic framework for assessing and reporting greenhouse gas emissions and reductions associated with their projects.
ISO 14064-2 provides requirements and guidance on: having a systematic framework for assessing and reporting their impacts and reductions.
- Calculation MethodologiesDetermining and selecting appropriate calculation methods helps to assess greenhouse gas emissions more precisely.
- Data Collection and Quality Assurance: Data collection processes and quality control standards are determined for the development of project-specific greenhouse gas inventories.
- Monitoring and Reporting: The processes related to monitoring greenhouse gas emissions and removals are detailed. In addition, the necessary methods for verification and approval of greenhouse gas declarations related to the project are presented.
By adopting ISO 14064-2, organizations can demonstrate their commitment to mitigating climate change and reducing their carbon footprint. In addition, the standard helps organizations identify opportunities to improve environmental performance, reduce costs and meet stakeholder expectations.
Overall, ISO 14064-2 is an essential tool for organizations that want to measure and manage their greenhouse gas emissions in a transparent and reliable way. Thanks to this standard, organizations can achieve their sustainability goals more effectively and minimize their environmental impact.
