Our Carbon Audit Process

At Emission Statement, we deliver rigorous, standards-aligned carbon audits that help organisations understand, manage, and reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. Our process is built on transparency, technical accuracy, and practical outcomes — tailored to your reporting obligations and sustainability goals.

Audit Methodology

All audits are conducted in accordance with ISO 14064-1 to 14064-3 and the GHG Protocol. Our auditors are trained by the Greenhouse Gas Management Institute and are members of leading professional bodies. Whether for NGER compliance, internal strategy, or voluntary disclosure, we ensure your audit meets the highest standards.

Step-by-Step Process

1. Scoping & Boundary Definition

We begin by defining the organisational and operational boundaries of your audit. This includes identifying which business units, facilities, or products are in scope, and determining the level of detail required. Scope 1 and 2 emissions are always included; Scope 3 is assessed based on materiality and purpose.

2. Data Collection & Validation

We work closely with your team to gather relevant data across all sites and emission sources. Our structured templates and hands-on support ensure completeness and accuracy. For NGER audits, this may involve 2–5 days of on-site engagement per facility.

3. Site Walkthrough & Emissions Mapping

We conduct physical site visits to observe operations, identify emission sources, and validate assumptions. This includes reviewing energy systems, fuel use, industrial processes, refrigeration, and waste management. For multi-site clients, we may sample representative locations.

4. Reporting & Recommendations

The final report includes a detailed emissions inventory, benchmarking, and reduction opportunities. We provide MACC curves, regulatory insights, and tailored recommendations to support your decarbonisation strategy.

5. Ongoing Tools & Support

We offer practical tools to help you manage emissions year-round — from Excel-based calculators to guidance on selecting enterprise-grade software. Our goal is to build your internal capability and reduce reliance on external consultants over time.
