GHG Data Verification
From Open Risk Manual
Definition
GHG Data Verification is the process through which an entity reporting GHG Emissions may provide assurance about the Data Quality of its reported emissions.
Entities may choose to verify their data to demonstrate that their calculations are in accordance with the requirements of the GPC Protocol and provide confidence to users that the reported GHG emissions are a fair reflection of a city’s activities.
Verification can be performed by the same organization that conducted the GPC assessment (self-verification), or by an independent organization (third-party verification).
