How does Ideagen Carbon Accounting work?

Ideagen Carbon Accounting works in your web browser, so there's no need to download any software nor do any technical integrations. It provides you with a simple self-serve workflow from start to finish, meaning you don't need to be a sustainability expert to deliver on carbon accounts. It drastically streamlines the data collection process using AI, making it incredibly quick and easy to achieve credible corporate emissions data that you can use for your sustainability initiatives.

Is my data safe with Ideagen?

Yes. At Ideagen, we take the safety of our customer’s data very seriously. We have implemented stringent security practices and are working towards our ISO27001 certification.

Is Ideagen’s emissions data compliance-ready?

Ideagen Carbon Accounting helps you easily achieve compliance-grade carbon accounts because the platform deals directly and automatically with your best available corporate activity data. This means your emissions results are traceable and as accurate as they can be, and you can use them to fulfill regulatory requirements such as the SECR in the UK, and the CSRD in Europe. Beyond compliance, Ideagen Carbon Accounting helps you easily deliver carbon accounts for third-party assurance, and voluntary reporting initiatives.

What if I am missing data?

Ideagen Carbon Accounting automatically recognizes and flags to you when activity data is missing, and instantly models unavoidable data gaps with transparency. This means you always have a comprehensive set of emissions results, regardless of how much data is missing, and you don’t need to rely on manual work to spot and fill these gaps.

Ideagen Carbon Accounting also provides scientific uncertainty values so you can easily understand the accuracy of all emissions results - the more data you are missing, the higher the uncertainty value. The more data you submit, the lower the uncertainty value.

How reliable are Ideagen Carbon Accounting’s emissions results?

Our platform’s results are trustworthy for a number of reasons. Unlike conventional solutions, Ideagen Carbon Accounting uses your original corporate data records as inputs into calculations, which means your results are backed up by documentary evidence.

By using the rich metadata contained within original activity data records, Ideagen Carbon Accounting is able to more accurately assign emission factors to activities to compute emissions. Meaning your results are more precise.

Ideagen Carbon Accounting also automatically applies supplier-specific emissions data wherever it's available, such as electricity emissions in the market-based approach. This makes it easy for you to transcend generic results that don’t accurately reflect the reality of your emissions — like those based on spend.
