Opportunity Scope 3: How to exchange emissions data across value chains and why

Location: Auditorium B, Business Pavilion, Blue Zone (Zone C, Area 5,  lot n. 118)
Host: WBCSD
Date: 11 November 2022
Time: 10:30 – 11:30 (EET)

Description: There is a strong momentum to create greater accountability around greenhouse gas GHG emissions from across the value chain (Scope 3), with e.g., the SEC, ISSB and EFRAG more recently, all new requirements for transparency. However, today, most organizations do not have access to accurate, primary and verified data to fulfil such requirements or make truly informed emissions reduction decisions. Without this data, full transparency and hence decarbonization are difficult to achieve.

In this session, members of the Partnership for Carbon Transparency (PACT) – an initiative led by WBCSD and supported by We Mean Business bringing together different stakeholders to jointly put in place the methodological and technological infrastructure necessary for emissions data exchange – will share the progress made in enabling companies to understand their supply chain emissions truly.
