We provide end-to-end consultancy services, from calculating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions using the GHG Protocol or ISO 14064-1:2018 frameworks to facilitating verification by an independent third party.
GHG Accounting
GHG Accounting Methodologies
To effectively manage climate performance, organisations must begin with a clear understanding of their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Accurate GHG accounting is the foundation of any successful climate initiative, providing insight into emissions across a company’s entire value chain.
At Sustainahaus, our consultants specialise in GHG accounting and reporting. Since 2020, we have supported PT Intiland Development Tbk., one of Indonesia’s largest real estate developers, in monitoring and analysing carbon emissions from property assets nationwide. Our team is experienced in calculating Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions throughout the built environment value chain through effective collaboration with property managers, corporate teams, and other key stakeholders.
To ensure accuracy and transparency, we follow internationally recognised standards, including the GHG Protocol and ISO 14064-1:2018 frameworks.
Key Benefits for Businesses
A corporate greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory is a powerful tool that supports multiple business objectives, from managing GHG-related risks and identifying emission reduction opportunities to participating in carbon markets and gaining recognition for proactive sustainability efforts.
By accurately measuring and managing GHG emissions, companies can reduce operational costs, improve brand reputation, and discover new business opportunities, all while contributing to a more sustainable and resilient future.
GHG Protocol Scopes
Scope 1 - Direct Emission
Emissions from sources owned or controlled by the organisation, such as fuel combustion in boilers or vehicles.
Scope 2 - Indirect Emission
Emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, or cooling consumed by the organisation.
Scope 3 - Other Indirect Emission
Emissions occurring across the value chain, including purchased goods and services, employee commuting, waste disposal, and the transportation or distribution of products. These are often the largest and most challenging emissions to measure and manage.
