Corporate Carbon Footprint

The DFGE turns calculating the Corporate Carbon Footprint into child’s play

The recording of climate-relevant emissions generated in your company and at your sites has always been THE key figure for sustainability.

Regardless of regulations such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), the upcoming ESRS E1, or the Voluntary Sustainability Reporting Standard for SMEs (VSME), the Corporate Carbon Footprint (CCF) is the starting point for all your efforts to stop climate change.

It is a prerequisite for required Product Carbon Footprints, participation in CDP, EcoVadis or for setting climate targets for SBTi. Simple recording according to GHG and non-consideration of Scope 3 emissions are no longer acceptable. A valid calculation is time-consuming and costly, as a lack of data availability, numerous locations and extensive value chains make what is actually simple mathematics complex.

With its top-down method, DFGE shortens and simplifies the calculation of the Carbon Footprint for companies. We select the critical influencing factors for you, use benchmark data and take accessible financial data into account. In this way, a reliable value for company-wide greenhouse gas emissions can be determined in a short space of time – a Corporate Carbon Footprint that also stands up to critical external scrutiny.

What is the Carbon Footprint?

The English term carbon footprint (CF) has also become established in Germany and is increasingly replacing the terms CO2 footprint and CO2 balance. It represents the sum of all carbon dioxide emissions (measured in CO₂) and greenhouse gas emissions (measured in CO₂ equivalents, CO₂-eq) that a company, product or service causes directly and indirectly over a defined period of time or over its life cycle.

Determining an emissions balance is necessary in order to measure the impact on the climate caused by companies and products. Ecological weak points and drivers of emissions can be discovered and optimized during the recording and calculation process. The calculated value of the carbon footprint then serves as a benchmark that needs to be reduced in order to achieve international and national climate targets.
