The extent of the verification activities depends on the level of assurance required by the intended users, the verification objectives, the verification criteria and materiality.<\/p>\n<p>The verification process includes the following steps:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Setting the objectives, criteria and scope of verification:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Confidence level:<\/strong> The degree of confidence in the verified claim about greenhouse gas emissions is determined. The document distinguishes three levels of assurance: reasonable assurance, limited assurance and assurance based on agreed procedures.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Objectives:<\/strong> The objectives of the verification are clearly defined. For example, whether the objective is to verify the accuracy of emissions data or compliance with the requirements of a specific program.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Criteria:<\/strong> The criteria against which the verification will be performed are established. These may include, for example, the principles of ISO 14064-1, the requirements of regulatory regimes or greenhouse gas emission programs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Range:<\/strong> The scope of the verification is defined, including the time period, emission sources and geographical boundaries.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Coordination of verification activities:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Communication with the verifier:<\/strong> The verifier communicates with the responsible party and the intended user to ensure that the verification process meets their needs and expectations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Development of the verification approach:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Risk analysis:<\/strong> The verifier identifies risks associated with reporting greenhouse gas emissions and proposes a verification approach to mitigate them.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Verification plan:<\/strong> The verifier shall develop a verification plan that describes in detail the verification procedures, including evidence collection methods.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sample selection:<\/strong> If necessary, the verifier shall select a representative sample of data for verification.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Assessment of the greenhouse gas emissions information system and its controls:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>The verifier will assess the system that the organization uses to collect, process and report greenhouse gas emissions data.<\/li>\n<li>It is verified that the system contains adequate controls to ensure the accuracy and reliability of data.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Assessment of data and information on greenhouse gas emissions:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>The verifier will assess the data and information on greenhouse gas emissions provided by the organisation.<\/li>\n<li>Their completeness, accuracy, consistency and transparency will be verified.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Assessment against verification criteria:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>The verifier will assess whether the organization&#039;s claims about greenhouse gas emissions meet the specified verification criteria.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Preparation and communication of the verification statement:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>The verifier shall prepare a verification statement summarising the verification findings and expressing its opinion on the organisation&#039;s claims on greenhouse gas emissions.<\/li>\n<li>The statement shall be communicated to the responsible party and the intended user.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The ISO 14064-3 document emphasizes <strong>the importance of the independence and competence of the verifier<\/strong>The verifier should be independent of the organisation or project it verifies and should have the necessary expertise and experience in the field of greenhouse gas emissions.<\/p>\n<p>The sources do not include information on the certification process and the awarding of credits for emission reductions, as this process falls under the jurisdiction of specific programs. <strong><em>Spring<\/em><\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The verification process aims to provide assurance to intended users that an organization&#039;s or project&#039;s greenhouse gas emissions claims are complete, accurate, consistent, transparent<\/p>","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-32740","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-lca_esg_ghg_csddd_csrd_iso_flr"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32740","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32740"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32740\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32740"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=32740"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=32740"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
