Cross Sectoral Standard

This part of the project documentation focuses on an information-oriented approach. Use it as a reference for the technical implementation of the pact_methodology project code.

CrossSectoralStandard

Bases: str, Enum

CrossSectoralStandard is the enumeration of accounting standards used for product carbon footprint calculation. Valid values are:

  • GHG_PROTOCOL: Represents the GHG Protocol Product standard.
  • ISO_14067: Represents ISO Standard 14067.
  • ISO_14044: Represents ISO Standard 14044.

Each CrossSectoralStandard MUST be encoded as a JSON string.

Examples:

Select a standard:

>>> standard = CrossSectoralStandard.GHG_PROTOCOL
>>> print(standard)
GHG Protocol Product standard

>>> print(repr(standard))
CrossSectoralStandard.GHG_PROTOCOL

Iterating over all standards:

>>> for standard in CrossSectoralStandard:
...     print(standard)
GHG Protocol Product standard
ISO Standard 14067
ISO Standard 14044
