According to the knowledge base, what are carbon offsets and how do they relate to a company's emissions accounting?

Carbon offsets are purchased instruments representing emissions reductions or removals achieved outside an organization's own operations. They must be accounted for separately from physical reductions and renewable-electricity attributes, and they have different accounting and claims requirements than renewable-electricity certificates.

What due diligence should organizations perform before purchasing carbon offsets, per the knowledge base?

Organizations should conduct environmental-attribute due diligence to verify the integrity and validity of carbon offsets, ensuring they meet applicable scheme and activity requirements before procurement and retirement.

Why shouldn't carbon offsets be conflated with renewable-electricity attributes in reporting?

Because electricity attributes, carbon credits, and physical energy savings serve different accounting purposes and should not be presented as equivalent; carbon offsets have different accounting and claims requirements and must be kept separate from physical reductions and renewable-electricity attributes in transition planning and accounting frameworks.
