GHG Protocol: Scope 1–3
The GHG Protocol Corporate Standard and Scope 3 Standard are the basis for almost every emissions disclosure. I build inventories from organisational boundary to emission-factor governance, with data-quality scoring, uncertainty and an audit trail.
What GHG Protocol: Scope 1–3 means for your sector.
Banking, Asset Management & Insurance
Scope 3 Category 15 (investments) and the institution’s own Scope 1–3 inventory.
- Scope 3 Cat. 15 financed emissions
- Own Scope 1–3
- Economic emission intensity
Energy & Renewables
Scope 1–3 for generation, grids and fuels, including market- and location-based Scope 2.
- Scope 1
- Scope 2 location / market
- Scope 3
- Emission intensity per MWh
Supply Chain ESG & Due Diligence
Upstream Scope 3: purchased goods, transport and supplier-specific emission factors.
- Supplier Scope 1–3
- Carbon intensity per € / kg
- Carbon-data coverage
Manufacturing & Industry
Corporate Scope 1–3 with production sites, purchased materials and use of sold products.
- Scope 1–3
- Emission intensity per unit
Retail & Consumer Goods
All 15 Scope 3 categories, refrigerants, stores and logistics, with uncertainty analysis.
- Scope 1 incl. refrigerants
- Scope 2 location / market
- Scope 3 Cat. 1–15
- Intensity per m² / € revenue
Key metrics for GHG Protocol: Scope 1–3.
- Scope 1
- Direct emissions from fuels, processes and refrigerants
- Scope 2 location- and market-based
- Purchased energy, both methods
- Scope 3 Categories 1–15
- Upstream and downstream value chain
- Emission intensity
- Per € revenue, per unit or per m²
- Data-quality score
- Primary versus secondary data, per category
- Uncertainty range
- Quantified uncertainty of the inventory
Sample work available. Methodology case studies with illustrative data show how I approach GHG Protocol: Scope 1–3. Ask for the relevant case study, or describe what you need.
