The problem

MSMEs are asked for emissions data by larger buyers but lack tools and expertise.

Success looks like

Calculations that follow a published methodology and a report that a procurement team can accept.

Suggested technologies

  • Emission factors
  • Data entry UX
  • Report generation
  • GHG protocol basics
  • Spreadsheets to API
