Software meets Expertise

With the DFGE CCF software for a standard-compliant emissions balance sheet

Digitalization in the field of carbon accounting is progressing. However, software always remains just a tool. It depends on the inputs, the gaps and the parameters used, such as emission factors, when calculating a Corporate Carbon Footprint. A scientifically sound and valid calculation of Carbon Footprints has been our DNA for more than 25 years.

In close cooperation with our software partner, we now offer you the DFGE Corporate Carbon Footprint Engine – CCF Engine for short – as a cloud-based software tool. The DFGE CCF software becomes the central point for data collection, analysis and control cell for the reduction of your greenhouse gas emissions as well as the digital basis for your climate targets – standard-compliant with CSRD, ESRS E1 and SBTi.

Compliance & Relevance

A brief overview of the increasingly complex challenges of climate reporting

Compliance – More than just a nice request

CSRD & ESRS E1: The EU obliges companies to provide standardized sustainability reporting including carbon footprint, targets and reduction measures.
Science Based Targets (SBTi): More and more investors and customers are demanding science-based emissions targets – a corporate carbon footprint is the way to start.
Financial materiality: Climate risks and opportunities are increasingly being evaluated as accounting factors (TCFD, EU taxonomy).

Relevance – More than just a reporting obligation

Risk management: identification of climate-related weak points in the value chain
Cost transparency: making CO₂ costs visible – e.g. for carbon pricing or internal management
Reputation gain: proactive climate action strengthens brand and employer image
Strategic management: emissions data as a basis for reduction paths and investment decisions
