CARBON ACCOUNTING AND REDUCTION STRATEGIES
Designed to help participants account for and reduce carbon emissions ahead of new EU CBAM regulations entering into force in 2026.
Learn how to Calculate Carbon via the GHG Protocol
Led by the carbon accounting expert, Calvin Adriel Sulistio, this comprehensive two-day Insight Seminar offers a unique opportunity for engineers, accountants, supply chain professionals and business leaders to master the essential skills required to navigate the intricacies of carbon accounting. Over the span of the intensive online workshop, attendees will delve into the nuances of carbon footprint assessment using the Greenhouse Gas Protocol while also learning practical mitigation strategies. The seminar is designed to prepare participants for new regulatory measures entering into effect in the coming years, such as the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism, which mandates all publicly listed SMEs to disclose their greenhouse gas emissions in their sustainability reports. On the second day, participants work through a real life calculation taken from their firm.
