Governance

The SSS methodology is maintained through a transparent, stakeholder-driven process designed to ensure the framework remains credible, defensible, and aligned with evolving carbon accounting standards.

Methodology Working Group​

The SSS Resource Registry Methodology Working Group is a voluntary advisory body that convenes periodically to review and refine the SSS methodology. The working group includes representatives from:

  • Corporate energy buyers and sustainability teams
  • Utilities and retail electricity suppliers
  • Third-party verification bodies
  • Carbon accounting practitioners and consultants

The working group provides input on methodology updates, reviews proposed changes to SSS qualification criteria, and helps ensure alignment with GHG Protocol Scope 2 guidance and other relevant standards.

Participation is open to qualified stakeholders with relevant expertise. For more information about joining the working group, contact info@sssregistry.com.

Verification Standards​

All SSS reports undergo third-party verification following fixed-scope audit procedures. Verifiers are selected through a rotation process with published conflict-of-interest assessments to maintain independence and credibility.
