CO2 Footprint: Three Scopes
In accordance with ISO 14064 and the guidelines of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, emissions from three different areas (scopes) are accounted for when calculating the carbon footprint.
- Emissions from the operation and use of the company’s own vehicle fleet and the use of self-generated energy (Scope 1).
- Climate impact of purchased energy, i.e., electricity, heating and cooling (Scope 2)
- CO2 emissions from business travel and other purchased services and products (Scope 3)
Depending on the respective scope, different market instruments such as green electricity certificates of origin or emission reduction certificates from climate protection projects can be used. In this way, you can improve your own emissions balance or underline your own commitment to greater sustainability.
CO2 Footprint / Footprint balance: Your benefits
With the CO2 Footprint, we determine for you exactly where in your company how many emissions are generated and can initiate appropriate reduction measures.
Unavoidable emissions can be offset on the basis of the results report to make your company climate neutral. A CO2 balance creates transparency towards business partners and customers and thus strengthens a trusting cooperation.
Certification of the Corporate Carbon Footprint
With the calculation of the Corporate Carbon Footprint you gain clarity about which activities in the company cause how much CO2. For companies that are committed to sustainability, the carbon footprint is an important tool for evaluating their climate impact. It is therefore a central component of life cycle assessments and sustainability reporting. A CO2 balance sheet enables the identification of high-emission business areas and savings potential.
