ACCREDITED CARBON REPORTING

Calculate your Scope 3 transport and logistics emissions with CCL's Greener Routes

MEASURE. MANAGE. MINIMISE.

Measuring your Scope 3 emissions is essential to understanding the full extent of your carbon footprint.

With complex supply chains involving thousands of shipments, and multiple countries, logistics providers and modes of transport, it quickly becomes a big data challenge.

Greener Routes allows you to track your Scope 3 emissions on one platform. 

GREENER ROUTES CARBON TRACKING SOLUTION

Emissions calculations aligned to ISO 14083

Using myCCL means all your logistics data is in one place, allowing the embedded carbon tracker to calculate the transportation and distribution emissions for your end-to-end supply chain. With GLEC accreditation, our solution has met the global methodology set by the Global Logistics Emissions Council (GLEC). This is a programme set by the Smart Freight Centre, with the aim of harmonising the calculation and reporting of logistics GHG emissions. Along with the GLEC framework our calculations are aligned with ISO 14083:2023.

A single source for all your emissions data, Greener Routes helps you measure, manage and minimise your supply chain emissions.

Carbon – What is Scope 1, 2 and 3?

Scope 1 emissions

Are from sources directly owned or controlled by the reporting company, for example burning fuel in company vehicles or using gas to heat facilities.

Scope 2 emissions

Are from the energy purchased and used by the reporting company. Usually this means electricity purchased from the grid but can include any heat or steam purchased.

Scope 3 emissions

Are everything else, or indirect emissions from the value chain. This includes emissions like, business travel, purchased goods and services and the transport and distribution of goods and materials – the focus of CCL’s efforts to help its customers.

Why is Scope 3 important? And why is it so difficult to calculate?

Scope 3 emissions come from several sources even within the same value chain.

In transport and logistics, a package can be picked up by an independent courier, taken to a distribution centre, then trunked by an artic lorry to another distribution centre and then finally in a van to the delivery destination. As you can see this involves a number of data points, such as the fuel used, the distance travelled, the weight of the package, utilisation of the vehicle etc. These data points can come from several different sources. Now imagine thousands of packages moving every day, adding in air and sea freight and the scale of the task can be insurmountable.

CCL has solved this issue with its Greener Routes Carbon Calculator, integrated into our award winning Transport Management System (TMS) myCCL.

Upcoming Legislation

Reporting Scope 1 and 2 emissions have been a requirement for some time now however Scope 3 has not been required until now. In Global supply chain it's not just National legislation that can stipulate reporting requirements but also areas across the world that you do business in, for example buying goods from Asia and selling them in the EU. 

Starting in 2025 the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) will now require almost 50,000 companies to report their emissions including Scope 3.
