Sustainability focus
-
- Aligning global operations with Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) requirements in the European Union, by creating a robust emissions reporting framework.
- Reducing carbon emissions across Scopes 1, 2 and 3 to support long-term sustainability goals.
- Engaging stakeholders through transparent reporting and measurable Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) outcomes.
-
- Managing complex supply chains across international borders.
- Adapting to rapidly evolving ESG regulations in multiple countries.
- Ensuring consistent, reliable data for emissions reporting.
Choosing a carbon accounting partner
With increasing regulatory requirements across multiple jurisdictions, Autorola needed a scalable way to consolidate emissions data so it could establish a unified approach to sustainability reporting.
Autorola Group CFO Peter Bisgaard said an internationally robust emissions engine was crucial in finding a carbon accounting partner to confidently centralise emissions measurement and streamline sustainability reporting.
“Previously, managing data from 19 subsidiaries across different continents was a significant challenge”
At Climate Zero, we were able to work closely with Autorola to bring emissions measurement onto one platform.
This involved incorporating specific emission factors in specific global locations, and delivering training for 50 team members across various time zones.
“Onboarding and training with Climate Zero were seamless and efficient. We had two training sessions to accommodate every time zone, ensuring everyone could participate. The sessions were recorded and made available on our internal page for further guidance. Overall, it was a very professional and positive experience”.
Results
With all emissions data across 19 countries on the Climate Zero platform, Autorola’s global team can easily view overall data and split it out per location, providing the detail and accuracy needed to report confidently on sustainability. This centralised system has:
- Improved data accuracy and operational efficiency.
- Enhanced compliance with CSRD standards.
- Fostered a culture of sustainability within the organisation.
