Frequently Asked Questions
Our tool helps companies calculate the CO₂ emissions of their digital products. It considers emissions generated by server infrastructure, data transmission, and usage on end-user devices.
While not currently required by GHG Protocol and CSRD, knowing these emissions helps you:
- Gain transparency about your carbon footprint
- Take proactive sustainability measures
- Prepare for potential regulatory changes
The required data is directly requested within the tool, guiding you step-by-step through the process. Our Methodology section provides tips on sourcing the necessary data.
Our calculations are based on scientifically validated models and the latest available data. Accuracy depends on the quality of your input data, but results provide a reliable foundation for sustainability planning.
No, your data is processed anonymously and not stored permanently. Data protection and privacy are our top priorities.
The tool focuses on creating transparency, showing you where emissions occur and in what magnitude. Reduction measures in digital products are often complex. Potential levers for emission reduction include: - Using data centers powered by renewable energy. - Optimizing hosting and server utilization, e.g., through dynamic scaling. - Reducing data volumes through software optimization. - Employing caching or Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) to minimize data transmission. The tool lays the foundation to evaluate such potentials effectively.
