Climate Essentials for Business
Structured operational carbon management for organisations
Carbon Accounting
Climate Essentials for Business is a carbon management module within the wider Climate Essentials platform, designed for organisations that want a structured route to operational net zero. It supports businesses of all sizes, particularly SMEs and multi-site service firms, to move beyond ad-hoc calculators into repeatable emissions management. Using industry best practice guidance and estimation algorithms, the tool standardises how energy, travel, procurement and waste data are turned into footprints, dashboards and reduction plans. Users can benchmark within their sector, communicate progress and prepare for disclosure or ecosystem programmes, including initiatives led by local authorities and partners sector.
Climate Essentials Analytics
Aggregated carbon insight for councils and business networks
Carbon Accounting
Climate Essentials Analytics is the ecosystem-level module of the Climate Essentials platform, designed for organisations that coordinate others on their net-zero journey rather than focusing on their own footprint alone. It aggregates bottom-up data from businesses using Climate Essentials and presents it in dashboards for local authorities, membership associations and programme providers. This enables standardised carbon accounting across regions or networks and supports targeted decarbonisation initiatives. The module is used to track emissions, pledges and progress across sectors, helping policy teams and business networks translate fragmented SME activity into evidence-based regional climate strategies.
Climate Essentials for Supply Chain
Turning supplier data into Scope 3 insight
Supply Chain Sustainability
Climate Essentials for Supply Chain is a module of the Climate Essentials platform designed for organisations that want better visibility and control over Scope 3 emissions from their suppliers. Instead of relying solely on industry averages, it collects primary emissions data directly from suppliers and aggregates it in a buyer-facing dashboard. The tool targets procurement teams, sustainability leads and programme managers in sectors where supply chain emissions dominate overall impact, helping them understand which suppliers contribute most, how their carbon intensity is changing over time, and where collaborative reduction efforts are likely to be most effective.
