Scope 4: Investors launch platform to standardise avoided emissions accounting
The platform aims to increase access to capital for climate solutions.
A group of investors and consultants have launched the Avoided Emissions Platform (AEP) to harmonise the way companies calculate Scope 4 emissions – those avoided by using their products.
The platform aims to standardise the assessment of climate solutions’ impact, by creating a more transparent calculation methodology, and is backed by 12 asset managers and owners representing more than US$4 trillion of assets under management.
