I want to recalculate old shipments. How can I do this? |
You can recalculate old shipments (that are not calculated yet) via: Scope > Settings > Forwarding > Forwarding Settings > Recalculate CO2 |
What is the business model applied by Riege and CarbonCare on the CO₂e Calculator? |
We offer a shipment based calculation with a volume model. |
I already have a CarbonCare Business License. |
For the calculation and the functionality within Scope there is no difference. But on costs side it’s worth taking a look at the shipment based model as the prices are really attractive in comparison to business license. |
How much does the CO₂e Calculator license cost per year? |
This depends on your shipment volume. Please get in contact with a Riege sales person for a detailed offer. |
Can we activate to calculate only for specific partners, branches or modes of transport instead of all? |
These kinds of narrowed calculations are not part of the license models. |
Please make the CO₂ value as shown in Scope also visible in Scope Connect. Is this possible? |
An implementation in Scope Connect is not planned. |
Is the CO₂e Calculator covering all transport modes worldwide? |
Yes |
Does the CO₂e Calculator offer calculations for multileg routings worldwide? |
Yes, global coverage and any combination of transport mode can be chosen. |
Which standard does the CarbonCare CO₂e Calculator follow for its calculations? |
Calculations are made according to ISO norm 14083:2023 and CarbonCare was audited and validated by S.G.S. |
Does the CO₂e Calculator have its own database? |
Our Partner WildVenture (CarbonCare) who processes the calculation has one with over 14 million data elements for secure and efficient calculations. |
Which transport data is needed to make a calculation of emissions for a shipment? |
Weight (kg) and routing with mode of transport for each transport leg |
How does the calculator find the correct addresses? |
CarbonCare bases the calculation of the ISO-country codes plus the postal codes and use IATA and UNLOCodes for air and sea transports |
Does the calculator use primary or generic data for the various transport modes? |
CarbonCare uses primary and secondary data from various sources and update them regularly. |
Does the CO₂e Calculator offer offsetting projects for compensating emissions? |
No, but our Partner WildVenture (CarbonCare), who use gold standard projects of myclimate and climatepartner and offer them. |
Why should I use the CO₂e Calculator as an emissions' calculator? |
CarbonCare offers a comprehensive solution covering all emission elements and has an excellent price/performance ration |
What does CO₂ and CO₂e mean? |
CarbonCare shows CO₂e values, i.e. Carbondioxide (CO₂) plus other Greenhous gases which are generated when burning diesel or other fuel (CO₂e) |
In which format are emission values available? |
According to ISO14083 CarbonCare calculates and publishes the CO2e-values for energy provision, trans-port and total and add the emission intensity in g/tkm. |
Does the CO₂e Calculator offer analytics and reporting options? |
Yes, via our Partner WildVenture (CarbonCare) with their tool “analytics & data storage” which allows establishing detailed reports which can be stored and printed/exported in EXCEL or PDF format. |
How can I access to the total number of emissions of the last 365 days? |
Our partner WildVenutre (CarbonCare) issues a yearly “emission certificate” where all emission values for each transport mode are listed for all calculations made via Scope. |
Can the emission values calculated by the CO₂e Calculator be used for measuring my company's footprint? |
Yes, reporting is done according to the ISO standard and can be incorporated in the yearly footprint report. |
