Climate reporting is a civic responsibility. Run it with evidence, clarity, and accountability.

For Machinery Manufacturers

Scope 3 Category 11

Category 11 is 85% of your
Scope 3. No standard tool
calculates it. Until now.

For capital equipment manufacturers, use-phase emissions dwarf every other Scope 3 category. We built the only CSRD platform purpose-built to calculate, document, and disclose Category 11 — with full ESRS E1 compliance and audit trail.

We are working with a limited number of machinery manufacturers as pilot partners.

The scale of the problem

The numbers are in their own CSRD reports.

Leading machinery manufacturers are already disclosing Category 11. Every one of them acknowledges high estimation uncertainty — because no purpose-built tool exists for this calculation.

The gap

Why every existing tool falls short.

The VDMA PCF guideline stops at the factory gate. LCA tools are not CSRD tools. Generic platforms have no machinery intelligence.

Generic CSRD platforms

Treat Category 11 as a data entry field. No product energy databases, no deployment scenario modeling, no machinery-class intelligence. You enter a number — they store it.

LCA tools

SimaPro, OpenLCA, GaBi produce ISO 14044 reports for engineers. They do not output ESRS E1-compliant disclosures. The bridge between LCA output and CSRD filing is still a manual, consultant-mediated process.

Consultants and spreadsheets

The current default for most machinery manufacturers. Takes 3-6 months per reporting cycle, produces outputs that are hard to audit, and cannot scale across a multi-product portfolio.

How it works

From product specs to ESRS disclosure.

01

Product energy specification catalog

Configure your product lines with power ratings, duty cycles, and typical lifetimes. Import from your existing product documentation.

02

Deployment scenario modeling

Define how your equipment is used in the field — operating hours per year, geographic distribution, grid emission factors by country and year.

03

Fleet aggregation

Calculate across your entire installed base — units sold by year, by product, by geography — following GHG Protocol Category 11 methodology.

04

ESRS E1-compliant output

Produce a disclosure-ready Category 11 figure with documented assumptions, methodology statement, and data quality score. Everything an auditor needs.

05

Full audit trail

Every input versioned. Every assumption logged. Every change tracked. Evidence chain from product spec to ESRS disclosure in one click.

Current reality

Without a purpose-built tool.

  • LCA consultant engagement: 3-6 months, €30-80K
  • Manual translation from LCA output to ESRS format
  • Spreadsheet-based fleet aggregation with no audit trail
  • High estimation uncertainty disclosed to auditors
  • Process repeated from scratch every reporting cycle

With this platform

Repeatable, auditable, defensible.

  • Product catalog configured once, updated annually
  • GHG Protocol Category 11 methodology applied automatically
  • Fleet aggregation across all sold units by geography and year
  • ESRS E1-6 disclosure output with documented assumptions
  • Full audit trail — every input versioned and evidence-linked

Pilot program

Working with a small number of machinery manufacturers to get this right.

If Category 11 is your most material Scope 3 category and you are preparing for your first CSRD report, we want to talk. Not a sales call — a working conversation about the problem.
