Firms need to document their Scope 3 emissions. It’s especially true in Europe where the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) mandates reporting.
Unfortunately in the US the government is walking back any disclosure regulations for greenhouse gas emissions. But many companies operate multinationally, and procurement procedures are so complex that it becomes very difficult to know what suppliers are actually doing about greenhouse gas and other emissions.
That’s why ways to collect and validate the required supplier data, as well as your own, are important. A well-designed system can make the task remarkably easier.
Enter Danish climate specialist ReFlow and Procureship, an e-procurement platform supplier. Their partnership has created as system called EmissionPassport, a structured way to collect product-level Scope 3 emissions data from suppliers as well as your own vessel-level activities. The makers say that the climate data is not used to make procurement decisions in the system, but does insure that the measurable climate impact numbers are available for reporting.
The system supports alignment with the International Marine Purchasing Association (IMPA) and its Maritime Environmental Footprint (IMEF) Initiative, which provides a shared climate data standard for maritime procurement.
See this Price Waterhouse Report for more information about the CSRD.
