How does Greenly's methodology account for both physical and monetary flows in carbon footprint calculations?
Greenly utilizes accounting export files to convert monetary values (€) into CO2 equivalents using ADEME emission factors. For high-emission areas identified through this process, the platform supplements data with physical measurements (e.g., MW) to ensure a more precise and comprehensive carbon assessment.
What specific certifications does Greenly hold for its carbon assessment and reporting services?
Greenly is certified by ADEME and the GreenHouse Gas Protocol (global equivalent) for conducting GHG assessments, and by CDP. It is also certified GreenTech Innovation by the Ministry of Ecological Transition and its solution has been labeled Science Based Targets.
Why does the pricing for a Carbon Footprint (Bilan Carbone®) vary based on the sector of activity?
The cost of a carbon emissions assessment varies due to the complexity of analysis required. Certain industry sectors present greater challenges in accurately assessing their environmental impact, which influences the overall difficulty and thus the pricing of the Bilan Carbone®.
Has Greenly's methodology been scientifically validated, and by whom?
Yes, Greenly's methodology has been approved by its Scientific Council, which comprises a diverse group of climate experts, economists, and voluntary civil society members dedicated to guiding the development of the solution.
What measures does Greenly take to ensure the security and privacy of client data?
Greenly has a security assurance plan available in its annexes. It has undergone an audit by the CNIL (French Data Protection Authority), successfully passed evaluations by numerous banking clients (e.g., BNP, RCI Bank), and ensures its employees are trained in security protocols via the Qontrol platform.
How does the EcoPilot AI feature enhance a company's climate strategy beyond standard carbon accounting?
EcoPilot automates repetitive tasks in carbon accounting and ESG reporting, allowing teams to focus on strategic initiatives. It provides intelligent insights for identifying key reduction areas, designing emission scenarios, and developing personalized action plans, ultimately making the team five times more efficient in managing their climate strategy.
