BuildGreen launches gpgraded version of Carbon Tool
BuildGreen announces the launch of version 1.1 of Carbon Tool, an advanced platform designed to calculate and reduce carbon footprints, with a market value estimated at over EUR 10 million. 50,000 European companies will need to adapt to new sustainability and carbon footprint reporting regulations under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), and Carbon Tool is perfectly tailored to streamline the entire process.
"In a market where sustainability reporting requirements are becoming increasingly stringent, Carbon Tool offers companies an efficient and accessible method to manage their ESG responsibilities and avoid penalties", said Răzvan Nica, managing partner at BuildGreen and CEO of Carbon Tool. "By integrating artificial intelligence, the platform automates data entry processes and provides personalized recommendations for reducing carbon emissions, tailored to each industry. Carbon Tool benefits from BuildGreen’s extensive experience, which, in over 15 years, has decarbonized more than 7.3 million square meters of built spaces and reduced client emissions by over 532,000 tons of CO₂ equivalent. In its two years of operation, the platform has delivered remarkable results, and in the current context, we anticipate doubling these figures over the next two years. The platform brings together local know-how and specialized expertise to support users from any industry in their decarbonization efforts", added Răzvan Nica.
The new Carbon Tool version brings substantial improvements in functionality and ease of use, optimized to adapt to the needs of each user, regardless of experience level. The redesigned interface facilitates intuitive navigation, and the "quick-add" options allow for much faster and more efficient carbon data entry and interpretation. The updated version also provides seamless emissions management across various entities and projects, consolidating reporting processes. Additionally, Carbon Tool can integrate with existing ERP solutions, thus simplifying connection with company systems and maximizing operational efficiency.
A key feature of the platform is the launch of the new SBTi goal calculator, now available on the Carbon Tool website. This tool allows users to calculate science-based targets (SBTi) for operational and embedded carbon emissions, ensuring businesses remain aligned with the latest climate goals set by the SBTi initiative. With this functionality, companies can develop decarbonization strategies aligned with the latest scientific climate data. Carbon Tool covers both emissions directly managed by the entity, such as combustion processes and generated electricity, and indirect emissions, including those resulting from the supply chain, providing a complete and accurate view of impact.
