Sem medir não é possível reduzir. O caálculo da pegada de carbono
is the starting point for any decarbonisation strategy.
Proven results
The impact that calculating your carbon footprint can have on your company.
What can't be measured can't be managed. Accurately quantifying emissions is the first step towards reducing costs, accessing finance and responding to the growing demands of clients and financiers.
Carbon Footprint Calculation Services
Somma supports companies in the rigorous and structured calculation of their carbon footprint, following internationally recognised methodologies.
The result is an auditable emissions inventory, which serves as the basis for the decarbonisation plan, the sustainability report and access to public funding programmes.
GHG Emissions Inventory
Survey and quantification of all the company's emission sources in Scopes 1, 2 and 3, based on the GHG Protocol and the ISO 14064 standard. The inventory establishes the baseline that underpins any emissions reduction strategy.
Product Carbon Footprint
Calculation of the emissions associated with a specific product throughout its life cycle, from raw materials to distribution. A growing requirement in environmental certification processes and international customer supply chains.
Organisational Carbon Footprint
Calculation of the organisation's total emissions, including operations, energy, transport and the supply chain. It makes it possible to identify the emission sources with the greatest weight and prioritise the reduction actions with the greatest return.
Inventory Report
Preparation of the formal document with methodology, data, assumptions and calculation results, prepared for external validation and use in funding applications or certification processes.
Annual Update and Monitoring
Reviewing and updating the emissions inventory at defined intervals, making it possible to monitor the evolution of the carbon footprint compared to the base year and to validate the reductions achieved over time.
Methodology and standards applied to data.
Structured survey of data on energy consumption, fuels, transport and raw materials, validating the quality and consistency of the information collected by source and by Scope.
Calculation and Inventory of Emissions
Quantification of emissions by source, scope and category, applying internationally recognised emission factors, following the GHG Protocol and the ISO 14064 standard.
Report and Identification of Opportunities
Preparation of the inventory report with detailed methodology and auditable results, followed by identification of the emission sources with the greatest potential for reduction and inclusion in the available funding programmes.
Why calculate the Carbon Footprint?
Measuring emissions is no longer a voluntary initiative, but a growing requirement of the market, financiers and European regulation. Companies without a structured emissions inventory face increasing difficulties in accessing European funds, responding to requests from large clients and demonstrating credibility with banks.
Calculating the carbon footprint is the first mandatory step to access the PRR and PT2030 decarbonisation support programmes, which require a documented and auditable emissions baseline to validate the reductions achieved.
Companies that measure today are better placed to reduce tomorrow, with real data, credible targets and access to financing on more favourable terms.
Carbon footprint
Large customers and partners are demanding more and more emissions data from their suppliers. Without a documented inventory, responding to specifications and value chain audits becomes unfeasible.
Access to the PRR and PT2030 programmes requires an auditable emissions baseline. The GHG inventory is the starting document for any application for industrial decarbonisation funding.
Banks and investment funds incorporate ESG criteria into their risk assessment and financing conditions. Companies with structured issue data have access to more favourable conditions and demonstrate credibility with their financiers.
CALCULATION METHODOLOGY
Emissions calculated on the basis of
in recognised standards
Somma's carbon footprint calculation follows internationally recognised standards and methodologies, ensuring that the results are auditable, comparable and accepted by financiers, clients and regulatory bodies.
GHG Protocol
The global reference methodology for the inventory of greenhouse gas emissions. It defines the criteria for classification by Scope, the organisational limits and the applicable emission factors, and is accepted by the main funding programmes and verification bodies.
ISO 14064
International standard for quantifying and reporting GHG emissions at an organisational level. It establishes the documentation, validation and external verification requirements that give the inventory credibility with auditors and financiers.
ISO 14067
Specific standard for calculating a product's carbon footprint, based on the life cycle analysis methodology. Applicable to companies that need product environmental declarations for international clients or environmental certification.
European Union Green Taxonomy
European regulatory framework that defines economic activities considered to be environmentally sustainable. Alignment with the Taxonomy is a requirement for access to certain European funds and green financing instruments.
Somma technology
Calculate, update and monitor your company's carbon footprint on a single platform.
The Somma platform centralises the entire process of calculating and monitoring GHG emissions, from data collection to the generation of periodic reports. Designed for technical and management teams, it makes it possible to follow the evolution of the carbon footprint compared to the base year, document reductions and respond to audit requests with structured and traceable information.
Available for companies that already have an emissions inventory and for those that are starting the measurement process.
