Eaton uses an independent verification body to verify our GHG data. The verification includes a “reasonable” level of assurance for Scope 1 emissions (direct emissions from sources owned or controlled by the company) and Scope 2 emissions (indirect emissions from goods or resources with potential GHG emissions, mostly from the purchase of electricity). The Scope 3 verification includes a "limited" level of assurance for emissions of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e). Our most recent publicly available verification statement is provided here.
