About the session

What’s covered

What could hourly Scope 2 accounting mean for renewable energy deployment in the future? How will smaller companies survive stricter rules meant for big emitters?

This panel probes the proposed overhaul to the GHG Protocol’s Scope 2 electricity accounting rules, currently under revision. The proposal would shift emissions claims from annual renewable matching to hourly, grid-localized attribution — placing heavy burden on procurement, reporting systems, and finance structures for renewable energy buyers. We’ll explore implications for corporate buyers, renewable project developers, grid decarbonization, and equity across firm scales. Listen to an expert panel discuss: is this a needed precision update or a barrier that will slow renewable electricity deployment?
