GHG Emissions Verification Based on ISO 14064-1 for EU Ecolabel Compliance Laboratory Testing Service

Provided by Eurolab: A Complete Guide to Understanding the Process, Benefits, and Requirements

As a leading laboratory testing service provider, Eurolab is committed to assisting organizations in achieving EU Ecolabel compliance through GHG emissions verification based on ISO 14064-1. In this comprehensive guide, we will delve into the world of GHG emissions verification, exploring the relevant standards, requirements, test conditions, and reporting procedures.

STANDARD-RELATED INFORMATION

GHG emissions verification is a critical aspect of environmental management, and it is governed by several international and national standards. The primary standard governing GHG emissions verification is ISO 14064-1, which provides a framework for organizations to calculate and verify their greenhouse gas emissions.

ISO 14064-1:2006

  • Scope: Specifies the principles and requirements for the project-level quantification and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions saved or reductions achieved.

  • Application: Applies to any organization that wants to quantify and report GHG emissions saved or reductions achieved through a project.

    • Other Relevant Standards

  • ISO 14064-2:2006 - specifies the requirements for organizations to manage and report their GHG emissions.

  • ISO 14064-3:2006 - provides guidelines for organizations to calculate and report GHG emissions.

    • National and International Standards

  • EU Ecolabel Regulation (EC) No. 66/2010 - requires organizations to comply with EU Ecolabel standards for various products.

  • EN 16206:2012 - specifies the requirements for GHG emissions verification for buildings.

    • Standard Development Organizations

    The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is responsible for developing and maintaining ISO 14064-1. Other standard development organizations, such as the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), also contribute to the development of national standards related to GHG emissions verification.

    Evolution of Standards

    Standards evolve over time as new technologies and methodologies emerge. Organizations must stay up-to-date with the latest standards and requirements to ensure compliance.

    Standard Compliance Requirements

    Compliance with standards is mandatory for various industries, including:
