Towards more accurate, timely, and granular product-level carbon intensity metrics
A scoping note
This scoping note presents a high-level overview of the main approaches to, and challenges
faced when, calculating product-level carbon intensity metrics, including those applicable
to collecting and verifying information across the supply chain. Though the analysis
focuses on approaches used in emissions-intensive trade-exposed sectors (EITE), the
findings also have broader relevance to other sectors. As part of the analysis, challenges
relating to computing sector-level carbon intensity metrics are also considered, particularly
as inputs to product-level metrics.
