Auditing the Auditor - Due Diligence

ClimateCHECK’s knowledge of standards and verification protocols/procedures has given us a reputation of excellence and integrity. For clients that want to double check the work of other auditors for purposes of due diligence, ClimateCHECK can review the previous auditor’s documentation to assure the quality of the verification and related assertions.

Verification Services for GHG Reduction Projects

Climate CHECK can verify (“ex post”, after the start of the project and generation of emission reductions) GHG project assertions, such as amount of tonnes of CO₂e reduced or conformance with a specific standard or program (e.g. ISO 14064, CDM Approved Methodologies). We also perform pre-verification “test audits” to identify gaps and opportunities for improvement before the actual verification.

Verification Services for GHG Inventories

ClimateCHECK can verify GHG inventory assertions such as amount of tonnes of CO₂e emitted or conformance with a specific standard or program (e.g. ISO 14064, Alberta GHG Regulations). We also perform pre-verification “test audits” to identify gaps and opportunities for improvement before the actual verification

Verification Services for GHG Technologies and Products

Verification using quantification, monitoring and testing methodologies developed to quantify GHG emission reductions for technical correctness, consistency with relevant policies and programs, and acceptance by intended users.

• Validation (“ex ante”) and verification (“ex post”) of GHG assertions using new or approved methodologies.
• Verification of GHG and technical performance of new technologies and products.
• Pre-validation and pre-verification “test audits” to identify gaps and opportunities for improvement before the actual validation or verification.

Verification Services for GHG Programs

Validation of new project or product-specific methodologies and sector-sepcific protocols developed to quantify GHG emission reductions for technical correctness, consistency with GHG program criteria and processes, and acceptance by intended users.

Validation (“ex ante”) of GHG assertions using new or approved methodologies.

Verification (“ex post”) of GHG assertions, including:

• GHG emission reductions are free from material misstatement based on specified criteria.
• Conformance with standards (ISO 14064-2) and methodologies (CDM AMs).
• Pre-validation and pre-verification “test audits” to identify gaps and opportunities for improvement before the actual validation or verification
