Supacare practice note

Choose a methodology.

Start with four checks. Open each for guidance.

Reference: VCS programme documents (opens in a new tab)
  1. Check the fit

    Read the applicability conditions, exclusions and geographic scope. Record why the proposed activity qualifies.

  2. Follow the evidence

    Map baseline assumptions, additionality, data sources and monitoring requirements to the evidence you can obtain.

  3. Test the calculation

    Trace inputs, units, emission factors and uncertainty. Keep assumptions visible and calculations reproducible.

  4. Check the wider rules

    Confirm the methodology version and effective dates, then read the programme rules and relevant national requirements.
