Climate strategy & accounting

Understand CO₂e emissions.
Turn climate strategy into action.

From a robust emissions inventory and clear climate targets to a concrete transition plan: We support you in creating transparency around emissions and climate risks, identifying effective measures, and managing your transformation over the long term.

From emissions accounting
to an effective climate strategy

A climate strategy provides clarity on where your company stands, which targets are realistic, and how these can be translated into concrete action. To achieve this, we consider emissions, climate risks, economic conditions, and regulatory requirements together. We start by establishing a robust data foundation and identifying key emission sources and risks.

Building on this, we develop climate targets, assess reduction potential, and define an economically viable decarbonisation pathway. A concrete transition plan then translates the strategy into prioritised measures, responsibilities, timelines, and investments. The result is a climate strategy that goes beyond emissions accounting: it provides guidance for decision-making, structures implementation, and enables progress to be managed over the long term.

Three pillars of
an effective climate strategy

Companies start from different points. That is why our services meet you where you are – from establishing a sound data foundation and setting climate targets to implementation and ongoing management. Not every building block is equally relevant for every company. Together, we select the services that best fit your goals, structures, and requirements.

Product Carbon Footprint (PCF)

Would you like to know how much CO₂e your product causes? By calculating a Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) based on the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, you receive a detailed accounting sheet of emissions along the entire product life cycle. This allows you to recognize hotspots and identify reduction potential.
