Does Toolkit for ISO 14064 apply to my business?

ISO 14064 applies if you quantify, monitor, report or verify greenhouse gas data, whether as an organisation preparing an inventory, a project proponent, or a verification body. It is voluntary, so no law compels you to conform, but supply chain, carbon market and disclosure programmes often require it.

Who does ISO 14064 apply to?

It applies to three duty holders: organisations preparing GHG inventories, GHG project proponents, and verification or validation bodies. Any organisation of any type, size, sector or location that prepares a GHG inventory is covered.

Does Toolkit for ISO 14064 apply to a small business?

The instrument has no size threshold. ISO 14064 applies to any organisation regardless of type, size, sector or geographic location, and it is highly relevant to SMEs.

When does ISO 14064 apply from, and what are the deadlines?

There are no statutory deadlines. Inventories are typically prepared annually under ISO 14064-1:2018, Clause 8, verification runs for each reporting period under ISO 14064-3:2019, Clause 5, and base year recalculation is triggered by structural or methodology change under ISO 14064-1:2018, Clause 8.2.

What does ISO 14064 require me to do?

You must define your organisational and operational boundaries (ISO 14064-1:2018, Clauses 5.1 and 5.2), apply the five principles (Clause 5.3), run quality management and internal controls (Clause 7), and prepare a GHG report.

What records or documents does ISO 14064 require me to keep or produce?

You must maintain records and provide documentation to verification bodies, operate internal controls over GHG data (ISO 14064-1:2018, Clause 7.2), and verification bodies must retain engagement documentation.

What happens if I do not comply with ISO 14064?

ISO is not a regulator and imposes no fines. Consequences run through the market: a verification body may withdraw or modify a statement, carbon credits may be rejected, accreditation may be lost, and green finance access may be lost.

How do I start complying with ISO 14064?

The first practical step is to define and document your organisational context, including the purpose and intended use of the GHG inventory and any applicable programme requirements (ISO 14064-1:2018, Clause 4).
