How do you calculate my company’s carbon emissions? A great question, and one we’re asked a lot!
There are only five stages, ending with your full calculation so you can set target, liaise with suppliers, and – at last resort – offset.
Stage 1
The simplest one – you upload your data.
Stage 2
We’ll cross check and clean the data to identify which specific company you’ve uploaded for each record. For example, you may have written Coke, Cocacola, or CocaCola Enterprises.
Stage 3
If we don’t already know the company, we’ll attempt to match it to one of our categories – provided we can do so with a high degree of confidence. (AI isn’t perfect all the time – despite what the movies might make you think)
We’ll apply the calculations, and if the system isn’t sure we’ll flag it for manual verification.
Stage 4
Now we know the company, we can check if we already have it in our database.
If we do, we apply the appropriate calculations based on either a batch of similar companies or if we have specific numbers based on those.
Stage 5
Now we know all your emissions and can generate the appropriate advice, as well as be ready to perform any supplier communications you may want to do.
