Greenhouse gases - Part 3: Specification with guidance for the validation and verification of greenhouse gas assertions (ISO 14064-3:2006)
ISO 14064-3:2006 specifies principles and requirements and provides guidance for those conducting or managing the validation and/or verification of greenhouse gas (GHG) assertions. It can be applied to organizational or GHG project quantification, including GHG quantification, monitoring and reporting carried out in accordance with ISO 14064-1 or ISO 14064-2.
ISO 14064-3:2006 specifies requirements for selecting GHG validators/verifiers, establishing the level of assurance, objectives, criteria and scope, determining the validation/verification approach, assessing GHG data, information, information systems and controls, evaluating GHG assertions and preparing validation/verification statements.
Treibhausgase - Teil 3: Spezifikation mit Anleitung zur Validierung und Verifizierung von Erklärungen über Treibhausgase (ISO 14064-3:2006)
Der vorliegende Teil von ISO 14064 legt Grundsätze und Anforderungen fest und stellt eine Anleitung für diejenigen zur Verfügung, die die Validierung und/oder Verifizierung von Erklärungen über Treibhausgase (THG) durchführen oder leiten. Er kann auf die quantitative Bestimmung auf der Ebene einer Organisation oder eines Klimaschutzprojektes, einschließlich der nach ISO 14064 1 oder ISO 14064 2 durchgeführten quantitativen Bestimmung, Überwachung und Berichterstattung von Treibhausgasen, angewendet werden.
Dieser Teil von ISO 14064 legt die Anforderungen an die Auswahl von Treibhausgasvalidierern/ verifizierern, die Festlegung des Grades an Sicherheit, Zielsetzungen, Kriterien und des Geltungsbereichs, die Bestimmung des Validierungs /Verifizierungsansatzes, die Beurteilung von treibhausgasbezogenen Daten, Informationen, Informationssystemen und Kontrollen, die Bewertung von Erklärungen über Treibhausgase und die Erstellung von Validierungs /Verifizierungserklärungen fest.
ISO 14064 ist gegenüber Klimaschutzprogrammen neutral. Wenn ein Klimaschutzprogramm anwendbar ist, gelten die Anforderungen dieses Klimaschutzprogramms ergänzend zu den Anforderungen von ISO 14064.
ANMERKUNG Wenn eine Anforderung von ISO 14064 eine Organisation oder einen Antragsteller eines Klimaschutzprojektes daran hindert, eine Anforderung des Klimaschutzprogramms zu erfüllen, hat die Anforderung des Klimaschutzprogramms Vorrang.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 14064-3 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 207, Environmental management.
ISO 14064 consists of the following parts, under the general title Greenhouse gases:
— Part 1: Specification with guidance at the organization level for quantification and reporting of greenhouse
gas emissions and removals
— Part2:Specification with guidance at the project level for quantification, monitoring and reporting of
greenhouse gas emission reductions or removal enhancements
— Part 3: Specification with guidance for the validation and verification of greenhouse gas assertions

Introduction
0.1 Climate change has been identified as one of the greatest challenges facing nations, governments,
business and citizens over future decades. Climate change has implications for both human and natural
systems and could lead to significant changes in resource use, production and economic activity. In response,
international, regional, national, and local initiatives are being developed and implemented to limit greenhouse
gas (GHG) concentrations in the Earth's atmosphere. Such GHG initiatives rely on the quantification,
monitoring, reporting and verification of GHG emissions and/or removals.
ISO14064-1 details principles and requirements for designing, developing, managing and reporting
organization- or company-level GHG inventories. It includes requirements for determining GHG emission
boundaries, quantifying an organization's GHG emissions and removals and identifying specific company
actions or activities aimed at improving GHG management. It also includes requirements and guidance on
inventory quality management, reporting, internal auditing and the organization's responsibilities in verification
activities.
ISO14064-2 focuses on GHG projects or project-based activities specifically designed to reduce GHG
emissions or increase GHG removals. It includes principles and requirements for determining project baseline
scenarios and for monitoring, quantifying and reporting project performance relative to the baseline scenario
and provides the basis for GHG projects to be validated and verified.
This part of ISO 14064 details principles and requirements for verifying GHG inventories and validating or
verifying GHG projects. It describes the process for GHG-related validation or verification and specifies
components such as validation or verification planning, assessment procedures and the evaluation of
organization or project GHG assertions. This part of ISO 14064 can be used by organizations or independent
parties to validate or verify GHG assertions.
Figure 1 displays the relationships between the three parts of ISO 14064.
0.2 ISO14064 is expected to benefit organizations, governments, project proponents and stakeholders
worldwide by providing clarity and consistency for quantifying, monitoring, reporting and validating or verifying
GHG inventories or projects. Specifically, use of ISO 14064 could
— enhance the environmental integrity of GHG quantification,
— enhance the credibility, consistency and transparency of GHG quantification, monitoring and reporting,
including GHG project emission reductions and removal enhancements,
— facilitate the development and implemen
