GHG INVENTORY & EMISSIONS REPORTING PLATFORM

A practical platform for measuring
and managing GHG emissions

Capture activity data across every site and department, calculate your Scope 1, 2 and 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory automatically, and watch your full emissions profile update as data is entered — not once a year. Every figure drills down to the activity behind it, and every output is built to stand up to disclosure and third-party verification.

Intensity benchmarkingcompare emissions per employee (FTE) and per m² across entities and facilities.

Activity hotspots — your single biggest emissions contributor, surfaced automatically.

HOW IT WORKS

Greenhouse gas accounting software built for real decisions

Most organisations struggle to turn sustainability data into something they can act on. CarbonKnown is a greenhouse gas accounting software platform that transforms raw activity data into structured, comparable, audit-ready intelligence — supporting everything from carbon footprinting to full sustainability reporting.

  • Capture

    Structured greenhouse gas (GHG) data collection across Scope 1, 2 and 3. Decentralised input across facilities and departments, with central oversight and full auditability.

  • Calculate

    Automated GHG inventory calculations surface emissions hotspots instantly, track performance over time, and highlight where action drives the greatest impact on your GHG inventory.

  • Report

    Sustainability reporting outputs structured for disclosure, third-party verification and board-level governance — defensible data that reduces audit risk and builds stakeholder confidence.

  • Act - with expert support

    Carbon Calculated’s specialists help you interpret the results and turn them into GHG disclosure, target setting, decarbonisation strategy and compliance. The platform measures your inventory; our people help you act on it.

WHY TRUST IT

Built by people who do greenhouse gas accounting for a living

CarbonKnown was developed by Carbon Calculated — a South African GHG consulting practice established in 2008, with a track record spanning Mediclinic, Vodacom, Belgotex.

Originally piloted with a large, listed financial services corporation, the platform was refined through an 18-month proof of concept before being deployed as an enterprise-ready emissions reporting platform across organisations of all sizes, sectors, and geographies.
