Solution: GHG emissions Verification under EU ETS

Key aspects of EU ETS verification

• GHG Emissions Quantification: The system provides methodologies for calculating greenhouse gas emissions from various sources, including direct emissions from production processes and indirect emissions from energy use.
• Monitoring Plan: Organizations are required to develop a monitoring plan that details how they will measure and report their emissions. This plan must be approved by the competent authority and include information on the data collection process, calculation methods, and quality assurance procedures.
• Reporting: Participants in the EU ETS must submit annual emissions reports that detail their total GHG emissions for the year. These reports must follow the guidelines set out in the Monitoring and Reporting Regulation (MRR) to ensure consistency and transparency.
• Verification Process: The emissions reports must be verified by an independent accredited verifier to ensure accuracy and completeness. The verification process involves checking the reported data against the monitoring plan and other relevant documentation to confirm its reliability.
