Exploring linkages between national and corporate/facility greenhouse gas inventories

National and corporate/facility level GHG inventory systems can help countries address climate change. However, these systems are often developed independently of each other, and confusion exists regarding the purpose of and need for each inventory type. This working paper seeks to describe national and corporate/facility GHG inventories, highlighting major differences. The paper also explores potential inventory system linkages to support the efficient use of country resources.
