"Conflicts Between GHG Accounting Methodologies in the Steel Industry" is The Coalition of Materials Emissions Transparency's (COMET) study of greenhouse gas (GHG) accounting methods for crude steel production. Steel production is one of the largest industrial sources of GHG emissions. This report highlights differences in accounting boundaries, calculation methods, and credit allocation between GHG accounting methodologies applied in the steel industry. Identifying and resolving these differences is necessary to allow for transparent emissions reporting that contributes to the goal of decarbonizing the sector.
