What is Greenhouse Gases (GHG) Monitoring Report?

GHG stands for greenhouse gases. These gases, including Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Methane (CH4), Nitrous Oxide (N2O), and various per fluorides and hexafluorides of carbon, trap the heat received from the sun and raise the temperature of the earth. In the past 10 years, this phenomena is increased multifold thereby raising the overall temperature of the world, resulting in climate change and adverse weather conditions. This has made it important to monitor the GHG emissions of the organization’s operational activities.

Such an activity is important in terms of emissions monitoring, reporting, and mitigating effects of greenhouse gas emissions on the atmosphere as well and such reporting improves the organization’s reputation as an active member driving towards a sustainable future. This also helps organizations comply with the latest legal compliances established by governments post the Paris Agreement of 2015.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

GHG reporting has various benefits that assist organizations, governments, and society in making concrete decisions for addressing climate change, improving sustainability, and promoting transparency and accountability.

Some of the benefits of GHG reporting are:

  • Environmental Responsibility
  • Climate Mitigation
  • Compliance with Regulations
  • Risk Management
  • Improved Efficiency
  • Cost Reduction
  • Competitive Advantage
  • Investor and Stakeholder Relations
  • Innovation and Market Opportunities
  • Long-Term Planning
  • Global Reputation
  • Scientific Understanding

The eligibility for Greenhouse Gases (GHG) Monitoring Report varies depending on the standards used. The factors considered for this are:

  • Size and Emission Thresholds
  • Type of Organization
  • Jurisdiction and Geographic Location
  • Public vs. Private
  • Scope of Emissions
  • Sectoral Regulations
  • Emission Sources
  • Threshold Changes

Various standards and assessments require organizations to report their greenhouse gas emissions. The specific requirements and reporting standards can vary by industry, jurisdiction, and program. Some of the standards that require GHG reporting are as follows:

  • The Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHGP)
  • ISO 14064
  • The Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP)
  • EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS)
  • Regional and National Regulations
  • The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC)
  • Sectoral Initiatives
  • Energy and Environmental Management Systems
  • Voluntary Initiatives
  • Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Programs

GHG reporting data is typically grouped into three categories:

  • Scope 1 emissions: These are direct emissions from sources that are owned or controlled by the organization, such as fuel combustion, industrial processes, and fugitive emissions.
  • Scope 2 emissions: These are indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, heat, or steam that is consumed by the organization.
  • Scope 3 emissions: These are all other indirect emissions that occur upstream or downstream of the organization’s value chain, such as the extraction and processing of raw materials, the transportation of goods and services, and the disposal of waste.
  • Scope 3 emissions can be further sub-grouped into 15 categories, as defined by the Greenhouse Gas Protocol:
  • Category 1: Purchased goods and services
  • Category 2: Capital goods
  • Category 3: Fuel- and energy-related activities not included in Scope 1 or Scope 2
  • Category 4: Upstream transportation and distribution
  • Category 5: Waste generated in operations
  • Category 6: Business travel
  • Category 7: Employee commuting
  • Category 8: Leased assets
  • Category 9: Downstream transportation and distribution
  • Category 10: Processing of sold products
  • Category 11: Use of sold products
  • Category 12: End-of-life treatment of sold products
  • Category 13: Downstream leased assets
  • Category 14: Investments
  • Category 15: Franchised operations

All scopes are important for GHG reporting, as this gives a comprehensive emissions data. However Scope 1 & 2 emissions disclosure is mandatory, while Scope 3 emissions disclosure is voluntary.

Scope exclusion is applicable if the activities listed under the scope are not applicable. This needs to be mentioned in the report with proper justification.

The following actions can be taken by a company to manage and reduce its emissions after GHG reporting:

  • Set Emission Reduction Targets
  • Implement Energy Efficiency Measures
  • Transition to Renewable Energy
