What is ISO 14068-1?
ISO 14068-1 is an international standard designed to help organisations measure, manage, and achieve carbon neutrality.
It provides guidelines and requirements for carbon neutrality initiatives, emphasising transparency, accuracy, and consistency in reporting and validating carbon neutrality claims.
The Key Principles of ISO 14068-1
- Accuracy and Completeness -– Ensuring that all relevant carbon emissions and removals are accounted for accurately and completely, minimising uncertainties and providing a true representation of an organisation’s carbon impact.
- Transparency – Promoting clear and comprehensive documentation and reporting, allowing stakeholders to understand the methodologies and data used in achieving carbon neutrality.
- Consistency – Maintaining consistency in carbon accounting and reporting practices over time to enable meaningful comparisons and tracking of progress.
- Relevance – – Ensuring that the carbon information is pertinent to the decision-making needs of users, including regulators, investors, and the public.
- Conservativeness – Adopting conservative assumptions and methodologies to avoid underestimating carbon emissions and overestimating carbon reductions.
