本研究は、米国GHGRPの自己申告排出量とClimate TRACEの衛星推定値を施設レベルで突合し、その乖離の要因を機械学習とベイズ推論で分析した。乖離の大半は施設固有の要因で説明され、親会社や地理的要因は二次的、業界全体の影響は最小であった。報告年や総排出量は有意な影響を持たず、誤差は体系的でなく個別の不正確さに起因することが示唆される。ボトムアップの自己申告とトップダウンの衛星監視を統合するハイブリッド検証枠組みの必要性を強調している。
English
This study matches facility-level GHG emissions from the US GHGRP self-reports against Climate TRACE satellite estimates and uses machine learning and Bayesian inference to identify drivers of discrepancies. Facility-specific effects explain most disparities, while parent-company and geographic factors are secondary and industry-wide effects minimal. Reporting year and total emissions volume show no significant impact, suggesting isolated inaccuracies rather than systemic errors. The author calls for hybrid verification frameworks combining bottom-up inventories with top-down satellite monitoring to enhance transparency and accountability.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
SSBJ基準や有報でのGHG開示が進む日本企業にとって、自己申告データの検証可能性は喫緊の課題である。衛星データとAIを組み合わせた第三者検証の枠組みは、統合報告書や投資家対応における信頼性向上に直結する示唆を与える。
In the global GX context
As ISSB and CSRD push for assured emissions data, this paper directly addresses the verifiability gap in self-reported inventories. It offers a methodological template for integrating satellite-based monitoring into disclosure assurance, relevant to global regulators and standard-setters grappling with Scope 1 verification.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Accurate and transparent greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions data is crucial for effective climate mitigation, yet existing reporting systems remain inconsistent and difficult to verify. Carbon accounting has emerged to give structure and legitimacy to these measurement efforts by mandating rules for affected GHG emitters through programs such as the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program (GHGRP) by the United States government. Historically, these programs have relied on self-reporting, significantly limiting the verifiability of corporate-reported data. In contrast, emerging non-profit organizations such as Climate TRACE (CT) estimate facility-level GHG emissions using satellite-based remote sensing. This study quantifies facility-level discrepancies between these datasets and identifies their key drivers. To do so, I systematically matched and compared facilities from both datasets based on reported emissions. I identified key predictors of these discrepancies using machine learning and Bayesian inference. My findings reveal that facility-specific effects drive most observed disparities, while parent-company and geographic influences play a secondary role. Industry-wide effects contribute minimally, with reporting year and total emissions volume having no significant impact. These results suggest that discrepancies stem from isolated inaccuracies rather than systemic errors, underscoring the need for hybrid verification frameworks that integrate self-reported (bottom-up) inventories with independent satellite-based monitoring (top-down) to enhance emissions transparency and accountability. Keywords: greenhouse gas emissions; carbon accounting; emissions monitoring; satellite remote sensing; emissions verification
