Who verifies the emissions
27 accredited bodies verified the most recent return for 22,271 vessels.
An MRV return is not self-declared. Every one is checked by a verifier accredited under the regulation before it reaches the Commission, and the verifier is named in the return. That makes the verification market itself public information, which almost nobody publishes: it exists only as one column in a spreadsheet per reporting year.
The table below counts each vessel once, on its most recent reporting year.
Counted on each vessel's most recent reporting year. A company that changed verifier appears only under the current one; the vessel page shows the full history.
