Green House Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol)

ClimateCalc is compiled according to the guidelines in the international standard The Green House Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol), which is published by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development and World Resources Institute. The standard is accessible on www.ghgprotocol.org.

According to the GHG Protocol the emission of greenhouse gasses must be divided into three scopes: 

• Scope 1: Direct emissions of greenhouse gases from the company by for instance burning of oil or gas in own boilers or vehicles.
• Scope 2: Indirect emissions of greenhouse gases from production of purchased energy such as electricity and district heating.
• Scope 3: Other indirect emissions of greenhouse gases from for instance production of raw material, purchased transportation services and the employee's commuting to and from work.
