Climate Change

The SGS Climate Change Programme offers a range of services addressing the growing need for mandatory and voluntary reporting of greenhouse gas emissions. The objectives of the programme are to facilitate trade in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and promote the harmonization of markets through the application of standardized verification procedures. Our services can help you whether you are captured in the EU Emission Trading Scheme (ETS), have a Joint Implementation (JI) or Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) project or simply want to report into one of the growing number of voluntary or state-based initiatives.

SGS is committed to ensure that GHG emissions and emission reductions are reported in a complete, consistent, transparent, accurate and faithful manner.

SGS validates projects to ensure they comply with the relevant eligibility criteria;
SGS verifies emissions to determine compliance with caps and for voluntary reporting; and
SGS certifies emission reductions.
