Regarding GHG-related questions namely Scope 1, 2, and 3, is the facility supposed to do accredited 3rd party GHG Verification aligned with ISO 14064 or GHG standard Corporate Accounting and Reporting or VERA or GOLD? Or other?

3rd party verification of GHG calculation is not required for the Higg FEM.

The Higg FEM verifier will not verify the GHG calculations done by the facility and only verify the activity data reported within the Energy section.

The Higg FEM 4.0 is aligned with the GHG Protocol Corporate reporting standard and assists in data collection and calculation for facility Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions only.
