Before the kick-off, we’ll ask you to share basic organizational data—like your entity structure and key locations. To ensure a smooth and efficient start to the project, we recommend involving the right stakeholders from the beginning. This helps avoid delays in communication and data collection. Key people typically include the project lead, a responsible for daily operations, someone from the procurement team, and—if available—a person with a strong overview of data management within the organization.

Customers are responsible for gathering and uploading their data, but ClimateCamp guides them every step of the way—advising on what data to collect, where to find it, and how to structure it. We also support the conversion of raw inputs, the allocation of emission factors, and offer customizable charts and graphs to visualize the distribution of your carbon footprint.

Our customer success specialists will check-in with you every 2 to 4 weeks depending on your availabilities to guide you through the process, answer questions, gather feedback and resolve calculation issues.

To calculate your Corporate Carbon Footprint, you’ll need data across three scopes defined by the GHG Protocol.

- Scope 1 (direct emissions), you’ll need fuel consumption data for company-owned vehicles, machinery, heating systems, and any on-site industrial processes. You should also include refrigerant use for HVAC systems if applicable.
‍
- Scope 2 covers indirect emissions from purchased electricity, heating, cooling, or steam. Here, you’ll need energy consumption data (typically in kWh) for each facility, along with the country or region to apply the correct emission factors.
‍
- Scope 3 includes all other indirect emissions across your value chain. This often starts with spend or procurement data for purchased goods and services, along with information on business travel, logistics, waste, employee commuting, and capital goods. Depending on your business, you might also need data on product use and end-of-life impacts.

Our results are highly reliable and designed to meet both internal and external reporting standards. We follow the GHG Protocol, the globally recognized standard for carbon accounting, ensuring consistency and credibility in all calculations.

Our AI assists in allocating emission factors and identifying data gaps, but every output is reviewed by a human expert specialized in emissions data. In addition, our customer success specialists are trained GHG consultants who guide you through the process and validate the data as needed.

Finally, we generate an auditable report that clearly documents your methodology, data sources, and assumptions—providing the transparency needed for regulatory compliance, investor reporting, or assurance by a third party.

This depends on the complexity of your organization and how quickly data is uploaded into the system. If you have all the required data ready to be inputted, the process can be completed in a month. However most companies receive their Corporate Carbon Footprint results within 3 to 6 months after kick-off because of the time it takes to gather the required data.
