Emissions measurement and reporting

Emissions measurement and reporting is changing. Simple, top-down methodologies will no longer suffice. In the face of a multitude of emerging threats and opportunities, a much more accurate approach is needed, right across the value chain. 

The practice of measuring GHG (greenhouse gas emissions) in the natural resources sector is rapidly becoming more rigorous, with rule-of thumb estimates being replaced by more granular, accurate, bottom-up calculations, particularly where Scope 2 and 3 are concerned. ​

Better emissions measurement pays off, with benefits ranging from risk management such as regulatory futureproofing, improved corporate governance and clearer stakeholder accountability, to commercial gains such as efficiency improvements, access to cheaper finance, product differentiation, and greater innovation. ​

Through our work with leading energy and resources producers and traders, we have identified six compelling reasons to get your business on the right emissions pathway. These reasons are: ​

• Enable active management of emissions in daily operations ​
• Optimise emissions up and down the value chain ​
• Become a premium partner  ​
• Future-proof regulatory compliance ​
• Access to more finance, on better terms ​
• Recruiting and retaining talent ​
