Ongoing developments ISO and market based reporting standards
Over the last months the international ISO Standard has been working on a specification for principles, requirements and guidelines for quantifying and reporting the carbon footprint of products. Initial draft versions of the ISO 14067 standard guidelines proposed an objection to the market-based framework (ie. reporting through tracking mechanisms such as the Guarantee of Origin) for purchased electricity. This would have resulted in conflicting guidance to other well known existing standard frameworks, notably the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Scope 2 Guidance.
