Climate strategies for the industry, energy and public sectors

In spite of international carbon saving efforts, global carbon emissions are higher than ever before. In Germany too, further measures are needed. At E-world in Essen, TÜV SÜD presents its comprehensive portfolio of certification and testing services related to carbon footprint, carbon neutrality, biomethane and green power (hall 1 / stand 322).

"Businesses, energy suppliers and municipalities undertaking voluntary efforts to mitigate climate change benefit from cost savings and a good reputation", says Thomas Claßen, project manager for voluntary climate-change programmes at TÜV SÜD Industrie Service. "Another advantage is that they obtain hard benchmarking data for comparing their performance against that of competitors." Critical factors in this context are complete measurement and documentation of all carbon emissions caused by the company (Corporate Carbon Footprint) or the product (Product Carbon Footprint). Carbon footprint certification on the basis of approved standards (e.g. GHG Protocol; ISO 14064), carried out by TÜV SÜD's climate-change experts, verifies the greenhouse-gas balance has been drawn up correctly and demonstrates commitment to climate-change targets. Carbon footprint certification also marks an important step in making companies and products carbon neutral. TÜV SÜD's "Carbon Neutrality" certification mark guarantees that all relevant greenhouse gas emissions were taken into account and that the certificate holder has used all opportunities for cutting carbon emissions and taken appropriate measures to offset all inevitable greenhouse gas emissions. Offsetting options include investments in recognized climate-change project.
