Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG)

The GHG Protocol for Project Accounting (Project Protocol) provides specific principles, concepts, and methods for quantifying and reporting GHG reductions.

The Project Protocol’s objectives are to:

  1. Provide a credible and transparent approach for quantifying and reporting GHG reductions from GHG projects;
  2. Enhance the credibility of GHG project accounting through the application of common accounting concepts, procedures, and principles; and
  3. Provide a platform for harmonisation among different project-based GHG initiatives and programs.
