Definition
GHG Inventory Boundary is the scope of the assessment in terms of the range of GHG effects (and non-GHG effects, if relevant), sources and sinks, and greenhouse gases that are included in the assessment. An inventory boundary identifies the gases, emissions sources, geographic area and time span. It is designed to provide an entity with a comprehensive understanding of where emissions are coming from as well as an indication of where it can take action or influence change.[1]
An entity's GHG Inventory Boundary may involves[2]
- A Geographic GHG Boundary
- A Time Period
- Identifying emissions associated with its operations
- Categorizing emissions as Direct GHG Emissions and Indirect GHG Emissions, and
- Choosing the scope of accounting and reporting for indirect emissions.
Effective GHG Emissions Management helps set operational boundaries that are comprehensive with respect to direct and indirect emissions. This helps a company better manage the full spectrum of GHG Risks and opportunities that exist along its value chain.
