Carbon emissions reporting

Carbon & Sustainability

Leverage our Carbon emissions reporting to drive Scope 3 emission transparency on your net-zero journey

How we support you

Transparency on procurement-induced emissions as basis for reporting, target commitment, and path towards decarbonization

Create full carbon transparency

Granular emissions baselining at category-, product- or invoice-level for annual reporting within weeks instead of months.

Leverage best-in-class reports

Proven, customizable, and multidimensional report and navigation functionalities and leverage readily available data.

Refresh at any time

Connect to multiple source systems and refresh data for up-to-date insights.

Continuous emission monitoring

Detailed visibility over time, allowing cuts by business units, geographies, or suppliers.

Our Capabilities

Rapid spend-based carbon emissions reporting, analytics and transparency for entire procurement-related emissions allows you to identify high-emission categories for refinement on consumption level or supplier level to embark on a holistic decarbonization journey.

Case study

How Lufthansa is using data to reduce costs and improve spend and carbon transparency

Partnering with SAP, the airline developed a clear view of their data, integrating multiple sources from across their global business network. McKinsey’s Spendscape then provided a full understanding of procurement spend—and insights into Scope 3 emissions.

Digital carbon emissions accounting journey

We helped a major energy utility company produce a Scope 3 emissions reduction strategy through 2030 by helping them gain transparency into their estimated emissions baseline, allowing them to optimize their decarbonization strategy by balancing impact and cost of abatement.

Energy & Materials

We developed a Scope 3 emissions baseline and decarbonization strategy for an electric utility player. We identified their key materials driving emissions and validated reduction targets.

Travel, Logistics & Infrastructure

Developing a granular emissions baseline for a client in the airline industry, we were able to generate an emissions breakdown related to commercial aircraft purchases, highlighting key emission drivers.

Consumer Goods

We supported a client in the consumer food industry to develop a granular Scope 3 emissions baseline to set Science-Based Targets (SBTs) compliant with SBTi’s Land Sector Guidance.

Automotive & Assembly

Conducted a proof-of-concept for an automotive supplier to improve the granularity of their emissions baseline from spend-based to more granular consumption-based, with region-specific emission factors.

How the European Union could achieve net-zero emissions at net-zero cost

December 3, 2020 -

The decarbonization pathways to a net-zero Europe are countless, but not all are cost optimal. We explore one pathway that could reduce the EU’s emissions 55 percent by 2030 while delivering broad economic benefits.
