    What is ISO 14064?

    An international standard for quantifying and reporting greenhouse gas emissions. ISO 14064 provides a framework for organisations to develop GHG inventories and verify their emission claims.

    Why it matters

    ISO 14064 alignment adds credibility to carbon reports, particularly when seeking independent assurance or responding to enterprise procurement questionnaires. It provides a structured approach to inventory development that auditors can verify against.

    Example

    A facilities management company structures its carbon report to ISO 14064-1 and engages an independent verifier. The verification statement is included in tender responses as evidence of data quality.
