GHG inventory

Introduction
  • GHG inventory, the process of preparing a greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions report, is a fundamental step in understanding and quantifying emissions. GHG inventory is the process by which governments, organizations, or enterprises can systematically assess both direct and indirect GHG emissions at the same time.
    By identifying key emission sources, businesses can make proper strategies to reduce emission and gradually aim towards sustainability. Widely approved international standards, such as the GHG Protocol (developed by WRI and WBCSD) and ISO 14064, guide us to achieve corporate-level GHG accounting and verification.

Benefits of GHG Inventory
  • ● Supports supply chain carbon management
    ● Enables data-driven energy saving and cost reduction
    ● Mitigates risks from carbon tariffs and green trade barriers
    ● Enhances brand reputation and ESG reporting capabilities
    ● Ensures compliance with regulatory expectations

Traditional challenges and solutions
  • ● Incomplete data collection and inconsistent methodologies
    ● High technical threshold and heavy workload
    ● Difficulty in compiling standardized reports and protecting confidential data
    To solve these challenges, our digital carbon measuring software integrates automated data collection, ISO/GHG-compliant calculations, and verification-ready reporting tools. Our software provides businesses with scalable, efficient, and secure GHG inventory solutions, which is crucial for staying competitive in a low-carbon global economy.

The final EU CBAM transition period reporting window is closing, the last drill before "taxation and compliance" phase; transition needs quarterly reports without payment, full phase requires carbon tariffs with reduced free allowances, dual responsibilities, mandatory verification, stricter penalties; enterprises confirm 6 products, strengthen data traceability, cooperate with EU importers.

The core of EUDR compliance is establishing a low-cost and confidential evidence system, following the data minimization principle. It requires providing necessary data around three core issues, clarifying data boundaries and transmission norms, and avoiding compliance and confidentiality misunderstandings.
