Software carbon emissions stem from the fact that software runs on infrastructure that on the one hand consumes energy and on the other hand has to be manufactured in very carbon intensive processes.

The effective user of that infrastructure is responsible for that carbon emissons and thus has the obligation to reduce it as much as technically and economically possible.

To implement business goals and KPIs it is key to understand where the biggest sources of carbon emissions lie (scope 3 upstream, downstream or even in scope 2) and where the biggest levers are.

Our consulting offer focuses on key business goals and product needs with a focus on carbon efficiency and carbon reduction. The target is to incorporate carbon metrics into central DevOps, Engineering and also Management Dashboards to enable businesses to act effectively in reducting software carbon emissions.

Companies face increased challenges for reporting under the CSRD or the british reporting scheme which comes into effect by 2024.

ISO 14001 is the norm for lifecycle assessment that also supports assessments for digital producuts.

In order to leverage the ISO 14001 a supporting framework, the GHG protocol is needed, which supplies the necessary boundaries and attributional methods to quantify a software product.

For non-reporting use, but rather internal operations we bring the SCI standard into your team and show how a software can be quantified and assessed with this methodology
