A Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Inventory is a structured assessment of greenhouse gas emissions generated from an organization's operations and activities. It measures emissions under Scope 1 (direct emissions), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased energy), and Scope 3 (other indirect emissions across the value chain) in accordance with internationally recognized methodologies.
The GHG Inventory establishes an organization's emissions baseline and provides the information required to understand its carbon footprint, identify significant emission sources, and prioritize emission reduction initiatives. It also supports climate-related reporting, customer and regulatory requirements, target setting, and the development of long-term decarbonization strategies. A robust GHG Inventory forms the foundation for sustainability reporting, Science Based Targets (SBTi), and Net Zero commitments.
