What is ISO 14064-1:2018?

ISO 14064is an international standard that establishes the basis for accrediting and guaranteeing the calculations made for organizations' greenhouse gas (GHG) reporting. The first version of the ISO 14064 standard was completed in 2006, thanks to the contributions of more than 175 experts from 45 countries. It took four years to complete, and the work was carried out by the International Organization for Standardization, which organized a technical committee (ISO/TC 207, Environmental Management) to prepare this standard.
