Methodologies used for Calculating the Carbon Footprint 

The Greenhouse Gas Protocol and the International Organization of Standardization are the most widely used international tools for calculating and reporting the emissions inventory. They classify emissions into three groups:

  • Scope 1: Direct emissions that occur from sources owned or controlled by the company.
  • Scope 2: Indirect emissions from the generation of purchased energy. The emissions resulting from the production of grid electricity or steam are accounted for under this scope.
  • Scope 3: Includes the indirect emissions result of an organization’s operations but not owned or controlled by the company.

FAQs

  • What steps follow after calculating a carbon footprint?
    Collapse
    After calculating your footprint, we help you identify the best strategies to reduce emissions. This can include switching to renewable energy, improving energy efficiency, using sustainable materials, and optimizing your supply chain. We provide a roadmap tailored to your company’s specific needs and objectives.
  • What are the benefits of regularly calculating my carbon footprint?
    Collapse
    Many regions are introducing regulations requiring companies to disclose and reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. By calculating your carbon footprint, you can better understand your compliance obligations and take proactive steps to meet current and future regulations, such as the European Union’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).
  • How does carbon footprint calculation align with regulatory requirements?
    Collapse
    Reducing your carbon footprint can lead to cost savings through energy efficiency, enhance your brand reputation, and help you stay ahead of tightening regulations. It can also improve resilience to climate risks and increase stakeholder trust, including customers and investors who are increasingly focused on sustainability.
  • How is a corporate carbon footprint measured?
    Collapse
    We calculate carbon footprints by analyzing emissions across three scopes: direct emissions (Scope 1), indirect emissions from energy (Scope 2), and all other indirect emissions, including supply chain impacts (Scope 3). Our approach adheres to international standards, including the Greenhouse Gas Protocol.
  • What is a carbon footprint, and why should I calculate it?
    Collapse
    A carbon footprint measures the total greenhouse gas emissions caused directly or indirectly by a company’s activities. Understanding your carbon footprint helps you identify key areas for improvement and take steps to reduce emissions, which is crucial for both environmental responsibility and regulatory compliance.
