Assessing GHG emissions through the entire value chain is not about measuring for the sake of measuring– it’s about measuring GHG emissions in order to manage and reduce them.
A full assessment of a company’s value chain is an essential first step in reducing emissions, as it identifies the areas with highest emissions and enables a company to target efforts where there is the most opportunity for reductions.
Companies that develop the most effective methods to engage with their suppliers can benefit from improved supply chain efficiency; reduced risk from suppliers passing on higher energy or emissions-related costs; reduced risk of supply chain business interruption; improved relationships with suppliers; and identification of new revenue streams.
