Our Accreditation

EcoEngineers is accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) National Accreditation Board (ANAB) as a greenhouse gas (GHG) verification body in accordance with ISO standards ISO/IEC 17029:2019, ISO 14065:2020, and ISO 14064-3:2019. The specific scope accreditation granted is verification of assertions related to:

• GHG emission reductions and removals at the project level activities under ANAB Group 01 – GHG emission reductions from fuel combustion.
• Verification of assertions related to GHG emission reductions and removals at the project level Group 03 – Land Use and Forestry.
• Verification of applications and reports under the Canadian Clean Fuel Regulations, Sector 2 – Renewable/Bio/Low-CI Fuels.
• Verification of applications and reports under the Canadian Clean Fuel Regulation Sector 4 – Green Hydrogen.

Expanded Services

Our accreditation by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) National Accreditation Board (ANAB) enables Eco to expand our auditing and verification services beyond the U.S. Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) and state-driven Low-Carbon Fuel Standards (LCFS).

We are currently accredited to perform verification of applications and reports under Canada's Clean Fuel Regulations (CFR) for multiple sectors, bolstering Eco’s ability to support U.S.-based clients expanding into Canada. In the voluntary carbon markets (VCM), our accreditation allows us to actively work on verification projects from work at registries such as Puro.earth, Isometric, and others such as XPRIZE.

As an accredited GHG verification body, Eco is seeking to perform verification services under The Climate Registry (TCR), Climate Action Reserve (CAR), Verra’s Verified Carbon Standard, and Gold Standard registries. In parallel, Eco is pursuing additional accreditations such as becoming a certification body under international voluntary and regulatory compliance schemes.

Low Carbon Fuel Standards Validation/Verification

We are an accredited verification body under California’s Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) and Oregon’s Clean Fuels Programs (CFP), which are implemented by the California Air Resources Board (CARB). We offer verification of annual fuel pathway reports for LCFS and CFP reporting entities and validations of fuel pathway applications for LCFS fuel pathway holders. Our validation/verification services are performed by qualified and trained verifiers that meet specifications for education and experience. We help manage the mandatory requirements required for reporting entities and fuel pathway holders producing and/or exporting transportation fuel into California and Oregon markets and generating carbon credits, and ensure your data is accurate, complete, and in compliance with these requirements.

RFS Third-Party Engineering Reviews

We perform independent third-party engineering reviews to assess the technical viability of a renewable fuel production facility and its production processes. The RFS Third-Party Engineering Review is performed as part of the compliance verification process for the RFS program. We provide three different types of Third-Party Engineering Reviews:

• New Facility Registration – the initial registration for a facility.
• Three-Year Update – required by the USEPA, facilities must update their registration information every three years after registration.
• Addendums – After initial registration and before Three-Year Updates, any change to the facility that updates the facility registration, an addendum needs to be completed and submitted to the USEPA.
