Corporate GPM Guide 3

The Corporate GPM Guide 3, published by the World Resources Institute, introduces corporate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventories as a primary step for companies to achieve energy and climate goals through green power.

• The guide presents corporate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventories as a critical initial step for using green power to reach corporate climate and energy objectives. It details the business justification for these inventories and explains their use as a management tool to determine the climate change benefits associated with green power.
• The document examines the question of which entity should be responsible for accounting for GHG emissions reductions resulting from the corporate procurement of green power, and provides policy recommendations to ensure inventories support the rewarding of corporate renewable energy use.
• This guide is part of a broader series by the World Resources Institute, based on the experience of the Green Power Market Development Group, intended to help corporations evaluate renewable energy opportunities. The series covers the business case for green power, technologies such as wind, biomass, and landfill gas, procurement strategies, and policies to remove market obstacles.
