The output

Start with the inventory you actually have to stand behind.

A complete greenhouse gas inventory across Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3, backed by the calculation basis, reporting boundary, emission factors and methodology behind the numbers.

Scope 1

Direct emissions from owned and controlled sources

Scope 2

Location based and market based purchased energy

Scope 3

The inventory is the output. The reporting record behind it is the product.

Behind the inventory

Every reported tonne should lead back to something.

EcoLedger connects the reported emissions figure to the activity data, emission factor, calculation method, entity and evidence behind it.

Inside EcoLedger

One reporting process from activity data to group inventory.

01  Calculate

Build the emissions inventory.

Enter or import activity data across Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 using reporting year factors while preserving the calculation method and source behind every result.

02  Consolidate

Roll every entity into one group view.

Set up sites, subsidiaries and business units individually, then consolidate them into a single group inventory without losing the underlying entity level detail.

Close the gaps before the numbers leave your team.

Use data quality indicators, validation checks and the Basis of Preparation to identify weak data, missing information and inconsistent reporting assumptions before internal review or assurance.

Built for the reporting cycle

Structured for Scope 3. Built for review. Ready to reuse next year.

The value chain, category by category.

EcoLedger structures Scope 3 around all 15 GHG Protocol categories so activity data, methodology and assumptions remain visible rather than disappearing into one value chain estimate.

Built so someone else can follow the number.

A reporting figure is easier to review when its source, factor, method and reporting boundary remain visible.

EcoLedger supports preparation, review and assurance. It does not provide an assurance opinion.

The first inventory is implementation. The next one should be a refresh.

Your entities are already configured. Your reporting boundary already exists. Your methodology is recorded. Your prior year data is already there.

Update the reporting year. Do not rebuild the process.

Emission factors and grid data can be matched to the relevant reporting year while the inventory structure remains in place.

Deployment

Start with one inventory. Extend as your emissions perimeter grows.

EcoLedger can support a single reporting entity or extend the same underlying greenhouse gas data across subsidiaries, business units, supplier networks and wider sustainability reporting requirements.

Single entity Multiple sites Group reporting Supplier data Wider disclosure
Organisation

Sites, subsidiaries, business units and group structures.

Data

Activity data, imports and supplier information where available.

Reporting

Use the inventory across sustainability reporting, regulatory disclosure, management reporting and assurance review.

Common questions
What does EcoLedger calculate?

EcoLedger supports a complete greenhouse gas inventory across Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3. This includes direct combustion, fugitive and process emissions, location based and market based Scope 2, and all 15 Scope 3 categories, with PCAF methodology available where relevant for financed emissions.

Can EcoLedger handle multiple sites and subsidiaries?

Yes. Sites, subsidiaries and business units can be configured individually and consolidated into a group inventory while retaining the underlying entity level results and reporting record.

Which emission factors does EcoLedger support?

EcoLedger supports reporting year factor libraries including DESNZ and IEA data where relevant. The factor applied to a calculation remains visible, and organisation specific or supplier specific factors can be used where appropriate.

Can I import activity data?

Yes. Activity data can be brought into the reporting process through structured imports as well as direct entry, reducing the need to rekey information across multiple reporting files.

How does EcoLedger support assurance?

EcoLedger is built to support preparation and assurance by preserving the calculation method, emission factors, data sources, reporting boundaries and quality indicators behind the inventory. Validation checks and a Basis of Preparation help teams review the reporting record before assurance. EcoLedger does not provide an assurance opinion.
