ISO 14064-1
Corporate Carbon Footprint
ISO 14064-1 Verification provides organizations with a reliable and internationally recognized framework to quantify, monitor, and verify greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions at the organizational level.
Build Trust. Demonstrate Responsibility. Drive Sustainable Growth
In today's business environment, sustainability and carbon transparency are critical to long-term success. Organizations across all sectors are increasingly required to measure and disclose their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in order to meet regulatory expectations, customer requirements, and ESG commitments.
Corporate Carbon Footprint Verification enables organizations to accurately measure, manage, and verify their GHG emissions in accordance with ISO 14064-1, the internationally recognized standard for greenhouse gas accounting and reporting.
What Is Corporate Carbon Footprint Verification?
Corporate Carbon Footprint Verification is the independent assessment of an organization's total greenhouse gas emissions, including:
Scope 1
Direct EmissionsScope 1
Emissions generated directly from sources owned or controlled by your organization, such as fuel combustion, company vehicles, and on-site processes.
Scope 2
Energy EmissionsScope 2
Emissions resulting from the consumption of purchased electricity, heating, or cooling.
Scope 3
Value Chain EmissionsScope 3
All other indirect emissions across the value chain, including suppliers, transportation, business travel, and waste.
Verification ensures that emission data is Accurate, Complete, Transparent, and Credible, supporting reliable sustainability reporting and climate-related disclosures.
Transparent Greenhouse Gas Accounting Through ISO 14064 Verification
The ISO 14064 series provides an internationally recognized framework for the quantification, reporting, and verification of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It enables organizations to transparently assess their environmental impact and demonstrate credible climate responsibility.
By applying ISO 14064, organizations can establish a reliable carbon footprint, improve sustainability performance, and strengthen confidence among stakeholders, regulators, and business partners.
The ISO 14064 Standard Series
The ISO 14064 standard consists of three complementary parts, each addressing a key aspect of greenhouse gas management:
Benefits of becoming Verified
Independent verification of your corporate carbon footprint under ISO 14064 transforms carbon data into trusted, actionable insight. Verification not only confirms the accuracy of your greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions but also strengthens transparency, credibility, and long-term sustainability performance across your organization.
Enhanced Credibility & Trust
Verification demonstrates that your emissions data is accurate, transparent, and independently validated. It strengthens confidence among customers, investors, regulators, and other stakeholders while protecting your organization from greenwashing risks.
Stronger ESG & Sustainability Performance
Verified carbon data improves the quality of ESG disclosures and sustainability reports, supporting regulatory compliance, investor expectations, and responsible business practices.
Improved Efficiency & Risk Management
Understanding verified emissions data helps identify inefficiencies, reduce energy consumption, manage climate-related risks, and support informed operational and strategic decisions.
Competitive Advantage & Climate Leadership
Organizations with verified carbon footprints demonstrate leadership in sustainability, enhancing brand reputation, meeting market expectations, and supporting long-term climate and net-zero goals.
What is ISO 14064?
ISO 14064 is an internationally recognized standard that provides a structured framework for the quantification, reporting, and verification of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It helps organizations accurately measure their carbon footprint, demonstrate transparency, and support credible climate and sustainability initiatives.
The standard is widely used by organizations seeking to strengthen ESG performance, meet regulatory expectations, and communicate verified environmental data with confidence.
