Carbon Reporting: Comprehensive GHG Metrics and ESG Data Visualization

June 27, 2024

EcoTracer's Carbon Reporting service empowers organizations to fully own and understand their environmental data through advanced dashboards and comprehensive reporting capabilities that span Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. This solution is designed to simplify the complexities of emissions tracking and reporting across products, suppliers, and customers, offering a clear path to sustainability through data-driven insights.

Granular Product-Level GHG Metrics

Our service begins at the most detailed level, providing precise greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions data for individual products. By measuring and monitoring these emissions, companies gain insight into the environmental impact of each product throughout its lifecycle. This data is crucial for identifying high-impact areas and opportunities for improvement, helping businesses make informed decisions that align with their sustainability goals.

Comprehensive Scope 1, 2, and 3 Emission Reporting

EcoTracer's Carbon Reporting extends beyond product-level data to include aggregated GHG emissions across the entire lifecycle of a company's operations and products. While most companies already have access to Scope 1 (direct emissions from owned or controlled sources) and Scope 2 (indirect emissions from the generation of purchased energy) data, EcoTracer delivers substantial value by providing detailed insights into Scope 3 emissions. Scope 3 encompasses all other indirect emissions that occur in a company’s value chain, including:

  • Upstream Activities: Emissions from the production of purchased goods and services, transportation of raw materials, and other upstream services.
  • Downstream Activities: Includes emissions related to the transportation of finished products, the use phase of sold products, and disposal at the end of their lifecycle.These Scope 3 categories are critical for companies looking to understand and mitigate their broader environmental impact, providing a complete picture of their carbon footprint.

Layered Dashboard Views

Our Carbon Reporting service features multi-layered dashboards that offer various perspectives on GHG emissions:

  • Company-Wide Emissions Overview: Allows senior management to see a snapshot of total emissions across all operations and products, facilitating strategic decisions at the highest level.
  • Product-Specific Emissions: Enables product managers to drill down into the emissions associated with specific products, helping to refine product design and supply chain decisions.
  • Supplier and Customer Emissions: Offers insights into emissions related to specific suppliers and customers, enabling companies to engage with their partners on sustainability initiatives effectively.

These dashboards are designed to be intuitive and accessible, ensuring that all stakeholders, from sustainability officers to supply chain managers, can easily access and interpret ESG data relevant to their roles.By integrating detailed product-level data with comprehensive Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions reporting and versatile dashboard tools, EcoTracer's Carbon Reporting service not only simplifies the complexity of carbon and GHG reporting but also transforms it into a powerful lever for sustainability strategy and communication. This service is essential for any company aiming to achieve transparency in its environmental impact and progress toward its sustainability objectives.
