Emission Factor Verification
We verify the emission factor of commodities to ensure the credibility and accuracy of corporates' Scope 3 emissions reporting.
We verify the emission factor of commodities to ensure the credibility and accuracy of corporates' Scope 3 emissions reporting.
Our emission factor validation and verification services ensure your Scope 3 data is accurate, reliable, and aligned with GHG accounting standards — enabling credible reporting.
Accurate Scope 3 emissions reporting is critical for building trust, meeting compliance requirements, and unlocking market opportunities. Many companies rely on generic or unverified emission data, which can create reporting inefficiencies, reduce transparency, and undermine credibility with stakeholders.
Move away from industry averages and account for emissions across your value chain using reliable, location-specific data.
Verified emission factors use actual supplier data, increasing accuracy and enabling year-on-year comparisons to track improvements – often resulting in lower reported emissions.
Our verification aligns with GHG Protocol standards and supports claims under Scope 3, Category 1: Purchased Goods and Services.
Supplier-specific verified data demonstrates lower emission intensity, helping showcase value to off-takers and creating new market opportunities.
Once verification is completed, we issue a formal certification confirming that your emission factor data has undergone a thorough audit — serving as a trusted, verifiable record to share with off-takers.
Verified emission factors can be unitized on our Impact Management Platform, allowing value chain partners to transfer and co-claim reductions with off-takers
"We decided to pursue verification because we wanted to build confidence in our methodology and project outcomes. With growing scrutiny in the market, companies need assurance that the projects they invest in align with relevant standards and maintain high quality – which we felt SustainCERT’s audit allowed us to do."
