With our MRV service, organizations can enhance transparency, meet regulatory requirements, and demonstrate their commitment to environmental stewardship with confidence.
Overview
MRV stands for Measurement, Reporting, and Verification. It is a framework used in the context of climate change mitigation to ensure transparency, accountability, and accuracy in tracking greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and the effectiveness of mitigation actions. MRV systems are designed to monitor emissions, report on progress, and verify the outcomes, making them crucial for achieving the goals set under international agreements like the Paris Agreement.
Measurement is needed to identify emissions, track mitigation-related support, assess mitigation actions are proving effective, and monitor progress achieved in reducing emissions. Reporting and verification are important for ensuring transparency, good governance, accountability, and credibility of results, and for building confidence that resources are being utilized effectively.
In today’s increasingly sustainability-focused landscape, stakeholders demand transparency and accountability regarding environmental impacts.
Or service addresses these needs by providing a robust framework for measurement, reporting, and verifying key environmental metrics.
Type of MRV
The MRV framework is often tailored to the specific needs of the client, whether it is a national government, an international organization, or a private sector entity, and may cover various levels of operation, from national to facility-level emissions. The concept of MRV is divided into three primary types:
• MRV of GHG Emissions
This involves measuring, reporting, and verifying actual GHG emissions over a specific period. It can be conducted at various levels such as national, organizational, or facility levels.
• MRV of Mitigation Actions
This type assesses the GHG emission reductions and sustainable development effects resulting from policies, projects, or other actions. It also monitors the progress of these actions towards their goals.
• MRV of Support
This type tracks the provision and receipt of financial resources, technology transfers, and capacity-building efforts related to climate change. It evaluates the results and impacts of the support provided or received.
