Why Carbon Accounting
Understand the Real
Impact of Electricity-related Emissions
Sustainability reporting is no longer optional. With frameworks like CSRD, SEC climate disclosure, and other ESG regulations, organizations must disclose electricity-related emissions (Scope 2 and Scope 3).
Accuracy depends on the quality of your data. Using rough estimates or outdated averages risks credibility. Inconsistent datasets lead to compliance headaches. And without audit-ready data, reporting becomes a risk.
Electricity Maps provides frozen, certified datasets that make carbon accounting reliable, consistent, and regulator-ready.
