Different platforms for different industries Some decarbonisation platforms are tailored to work best for specific industries, such as manufacturing, services, technology, real estate and finance. The needs of, for example, a business in financial services, are significantly different to a business in heavy industry.
Carbon accounting platforms look to track, calculate and report greenhouse gas emissions. Often they have automated data collection, cover all scopes of emissions and contain emissions factor libraries.
These platforms can help to provide audit-ready reporting and support regulatory compliance, suitable for organisations prioritising rigorous, traceable emissions reporting and disclosures.
Some platforms help businesses to collaborate with others, including those in their supply chains. By delegating tasks, collecting data from suppliers and tracking collaborative projects, these platforms can help businesses to tackle Scope 3 emissions.
For many organisations, these emissions can make up a significant portion of a carbon footprint – in some cases more than 99 %.
