The Integrated Scope 2 Operating Model

Prepare for the Next Era of Scope 2 Compliance

From GHG Protocol changes to SBTi alignment — build a Scope 2 system that stands up to scrutiny.

Scope 2 rules are changing.
Hourly matching, stricter location requirements, tighter audit expectations, and higher data integrity standards are on the horizon.

If your Scope 2 reporting still relies on annual certificates, spreadsheets, or assumptions, it may soon fall short.

We help organisations future-proof Scope 2 compliance by integrating ISO 50001, ISO 14064-1, ISO 27001, and ISO 14001 into one practical, auditable operating model.

Why Scope 2 Is No Longer “Business as Usual”

The proposed GHG Protocol and SBTi revisions mark a fundamental shift:

  • Annual matching is giving way to hourly and time-based electricity accounting
  • Market-based claims must be location-specific and physically credible
  • Data, assumptions, and calculations must be audit-ready
  • Energy procurement is becoming a governance and risk issue, not just a reporting one

This isn’t just an accounting update - it’s a new operating reality.

The Integrated Scope 2 Operating Model-1

Our Solution: A Practical ISO-Based Scope 2 Operating Model

We don’t offer certificates or spreadsheets - We design systems.

By integrating four internationally recognised ISO standards, we help you move from claims to credibility.

🔹 ISO 50001 – Energy Management

Captures when and where electricity is actually consumed, enabling:

  • Hourly and interval-level data
  • Load profiles by site or activity
  • Evidence-based energy optimisation

🔹 ISO 14064-1 – GHG Accounting

Converts energy data into defensible Scope 2 emissions, with:

  • Clear boundaries and methodologies
  • Documented emission factors
  • Location- and market-based clarity

🔹 ISO 27001 – Data Integrity & Audit Readiness

Ensures Scope 2 data is:

  • Secure
  • Traceable
  • Controlled
  • Verifiable under audit

🔹 ISO 14001 – Environmental Governance

Embeds Scope 2 into:

  • Environmental risk management
  • Objectives and decision-making
  • Continuous improvement cycles

Together, these standards create a Scope 2 system that regulators, auditors, and investors trust.

What You Get

Depending on your starting point, we support organisations with:

  • Scope 2 gap assessments against proposed GHG Protocol changes
  • Design of ISO-aligned energy and emissions operating models
  • Integration of energy, ESG, IT, and compliance governance
  • Audit-ready Scope 2 documentation and controls
  • CSRD / ESRS E1 alignment support
  • Preparation for SBTi target validation and updates

This is not theoretical consulting — it’s implementable, auditable, and scalable.

Why Act Now?

The standards are still in consultation — but waiting carries risk.

Early movers benefit from:

  • Lower transition costs
  • Better procurement positioning
  • Stronger credibility with stakeholders
  • Fewer surprises when rules become mandatory

Late movers face rushed fixes, higher costs, and greater scrutiny.

Don’t wait for auditors or regulators to tell you your Scope 2 approach isn’t enough.

Build the system now - and stay ahead.
