GHGR Technical Guidelines

The GHGR Technical Guidelines are a copy of the Greenhouse Gas Reporting (Weights and Measures) Codes of Practice 2025 with additional guidance and examples to assist reporters in meeting their obligations under the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Standard 2025.

Please note that the GHGR Technical Guidelines have not been updated to reflect amendments made to the Measurement Determination since the 2024–25 reporting cycle. Since the last update, significant amendments have been made to the Measurement Determination, including changes to methods, emission factors and Global Warming Potentials (GWPs). The Technical Guidelines should only be used in conjunction with the GHGR Guidelines, which are updated annually by the TGC. The GHGR Guidelines prevail over the Technical Guidelines wherever there is differing guidance. Any queries in relation to the Technical Guidelines should be directed to the Technical Governance Committee via enquiries@bidcarbon.org.
