Company-wide Carbon Footprint

DFGE makes calculating the Corporate Carbon Footprint child’s play

The recording of climate-relevant emissions generated in your company and at your sites is becoming THE key figure for your corporate communications and risk management. However, calculating a corporate carbon footprint – a company’s emissions – is often a time-consuming and costly project. Also, the availability of data, especially for numerous locations in different countries, is a major hurdle in micro-calculation.

With its top-down method, DFGE shortens and simplifies the determination 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 a short time, a reliable value of the company-wide greenhouse gas emissions can be determined. This transparent calculation allows you to focus on the implementation of CO2 emission reduction measures.

What is a Carbon Footprint?

The Carbon Footprint is a descriptive, widely-used term for the greenhouse gas emission balance of an entire organization, or alternatively, of a single product or service. It includes emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases (measured in CO2 equivalents / CO2-eq).

In the case of an organization like a company or public institution, the Carbon Footprint includes all emissions that are directly or indirectly caused by the activities of the organization over a certain time, usually a year. The Carbon Footprint of a product or service, in turn, includes all emissions occurring over its lifecycle.

Calculating the Carbon Footprint is the central step in measuring what effects a company’s activities and products have on climate change. In the process, main drivers of emissions and weak spots in a company’s ecological performance are discovered and can be optimized. The resulting Carbon Footprint serves as a guideline for own contributions to meeting local, national and international climate targets.
