Verification Services
ClimateCHECK offers verification services for GHG reduction projects, inventories, technologies/products and programs. ClimateCHECK uses established standards (such as ISO 14064 Part 3) and applies our expertise for verifying GHG assertions, including the underlying plans, protocols, management systems, controls, procedures, methodologies and data in line with the objectives and needs of intended users. ClimateCHECK’s verification services provide customers with an independent opinion on their GHG assertions to provide assurance about the credibility of GHG activities (e.g. projects, inventory).
Select from the following list of verification services or contact us for custom services.
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) of 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.
Organizational GHG Inventories and Management Systems
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
These services include verification using quantification, monitoring and testing methodologies developed to quantify GHG emission reductions for technical correctness, consistency with relevant policies and programs, and acceptance with 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
These services include validation of new project or product-specific methodologies and sector protocols developed to quantify GHG emission reductions for technical correctness, consistency with GHG program criteria and processes, and acceptance with 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.
