This document describes principles and methodologies, specifies requirements and provides guidance for GHG quantification and communication of Carbon footprint, emission reductions and avoided emissions from electric and electronic (EE) products and systems. The GHG quantification such as carbon footprint of product (CFP) is based on life cycle assessment (LCA) methods.
This document is applicable to EE products, systems and EE product-related GHG project.
In accordance with IEC Guide 108, this basic essential horizontal standard is intended for use by product committees as a starting point in preparing GHG quantification and communication standards for their own product families. Specific requirements developed by product committees in their standards take precedence over requirements in this standard.
When there is no specified standard available in a product committee, this generic essential horizontal standard could be applied by GHG quantification and communication practitioners with recorded complementary specifications.
