Now Seeking Reviewers, Partners and Projects!
The Global Network for Zero was founded on an urgent premise: Humanity is in immediate need of a realigned strategic approach to implementation of net zero solutions. We believe that decentralized climate action and incremental paths to decarbonization is the fastest way to scale up implementation across industry sectors.
We’re just weeks away from the launch of our cross-sector platform and its first zero-emissions product offering — an ambitious solution focusing on one of the most critical carbon sectors: existing buildings.
With unlimited entry points and a support system that embraces anyone endeavoring to reduce their carbon footprint, GNFZ’s net zero solution and certification eliminates the ‘all or nothing’ roadblock that has traditionally plagued the path to an emissions-free world. It provides an incremental approach to certification focused on making sure all buildings can establish a roadmap to get to net zero.
Our goal at GNFZ is to foster a decentralized community of inclusion, innovation and true transformation. So as we scale up and prepare to launch our net zero solution for existing buildings, we’re actively onboarding reviewers, partners, and projects. Find your place in the Global Network for Zero!
Join as a Partner
Do you provide net zero solutions to your clients and are interested in adding GNFZ’s net zero solution for buildings to your toolkit? GNFZ is actively seeking partners who can help projects use GNFZ’s net zero for existing building solution.
Partners work to:
Educate clients to help them understand, develop and implement net zero strategies.
Develop and implement net zero plans and strategies for clients across various sectors and regions, aligned with international climate goals, standards and targets.
Measure and report on the carbon footprint of clients and their projects, including scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions.
Advise on and design low-carbon solutions for new and existing infrastructure, such as energy efficiency, renewable energy, and carbon capture.
Collaborate with GNFZ to deliver GNFZ’s net zero certification to clients.
Support GNFZ certification by acting as a third-party reviewer for projects as long as there is no conflict of interest.
Advocate for the mission of GNFZ.

Join as a Reviewer
GNFZ is building reviewer capacity for its net zero solution for existing building. We rely on third-party reviewers to ensure accuracy of project submissions, to check a project’s documentation against GNFZ’s guidelines upon submission, and certify the project’s net zero status. Reviewers are compensated based on a project-by-project fee. To become a GNFZ reviewer, you should have prior demonstrated experience in green building or sustainability consulting.
Reviewers work to:
Review the GHG accounting standards and methods used by the organization to develop its GHG inventory, such as the GHG Protocol or other carbon calculation methodologies.
Verify that the organizational and operational boundaries of the inventory are clearly defined and consistent with the reporting requirements.
Check that the data collection procedures and calculation methodologies are transparent, accurate and complete.
Confirm that the emission factors and global warming potentials applied are appropriate and up-to-date.
Evaluate the quality and reliability of the activity data and emission sources reported by the organization.
Identify any gaps, errors or uncertainties in the inventory and recommend corrective actions or improvements.
Review net zero implementation plans, targets and strategies adopted by the organization and recommending any improvements based on best practices.
Review carbon offsets purchased by the organization for accuracy and applicability.
Issue a verification statement or report that summarizes the findings and conclusions of the validation and certification process.

Enroll your Project
Do you own or operate a building or portfolio of buildings and have net zero targets to hit? Or have you considered decarbonization but don’t know where to start? GNFZ works with you and your team to calculate and assess your Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions for buildings, and then develop a plan with specific strategies and milestones so that you can get to net zero by your deadline.
