Measure your carbon footprint, report it with confidence

Turn the fuel, electricity and purchases you already record into Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions, then into a GRI 305 report your customers, lenders and partners can rely on. No consultants' spreadsheets, no guesswork.

How it works

From activity data to an ESG report

01

Record

Log fuel and electricity in plain words, upload a spreadsheet from any system, or let ERPNext send purchases, stock issues and vehicle logs automatically.

02

Calculate

Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions worked out with published factors: Kenya national (EPRA / IPCC 2006), US EPA and UK DESNZ, with IPCC AR5 warming potentials.

03

Reduce

Set reduction targets, track initiatives, and see what green power agreements and certificates do to your market-based Scope 2.

04

Report

A GRI 305 emissions report with its content index, as PDF or CSV, with warnings for any data the totals leave out.

What you get

Log activity in plain words

"300 litres of diesel for KDA 004M" or "1,200 kWh of KPLC tokens" becomes an emissions figure in seconds, per vehicle and per site.

Upload any spreadsheet

Fleet card statements, supplier invoices and fuel logs from QuickBooks, Sage, Excel or your own sheets. Downloadable templates included.

Automatic from ERPNext

Purchase invoices, stock entries, vehicle logs and expense claims create emission entries on submit, with no double entry.

Scope 1, 2 and 3

Fuel, refrigerants, purchased electricity, upstream fuel and grid losses, business travel, freight and purchased goods.

Green power counted properly

Location- and market-based Scope 2 side by side. Each certificate MWh is claimed once, only within its validity dates.

Targets and initiatives

Reduction targets against a base year, and initiatives whose achieved reductions feed GRI 305-5.

Carbon credits disclosed, not netted

Record credits held or retired alongside your inventory, kept separate from your scopes as GRI requires.

GRI 305 report

Disclosures 305-1 to 305-6, biogenic CO₂ reported separately, a content index with omission reasons, PDF and CSV.

Built for African businesses on the way to net zero

Customers, export buyers and lenders increasingly ask for emissions data. Start with what you burn and buy today; add your value chain as you grow.

Manufacturers and corporates

A credible baseline for customers, lenders and decarbonisation pledges.

Transport and logistics

Fuel and emissions per vehicle for fleets, SACCOs and distributors.

Hospitality and agriculture

Generators, LPG, charcoal and grid power tracked site by site.

Lenders and investors

Emissions data from the businesses you finance, in one consistent format.

Each company gets its own workspace and adds its own team.
Data private to your company, under the Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019.
Every figure traces back to its activity, factor and source.

Sustainability & ESG FAQ

What are Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions?

Scope 1 is fuel you burn yourself (vehicles, generators, boilers) and refrigerant leaks. Scope 2 is electricity you buy. Scope 3 is everything else in your value chain, such as producing the fuel you use, purchased goods, business travel and freight.

Which standards do the reports follow?

Calculations follow the GHG Protocol, and reports are prepared with reference to GRI 305: Emissions, with a GRI content index. The figures support IFRS S2 climate disclosures and lender questionnaires. We prepare your data for assurance; we do not certify it.

Do I need ERPNext?

No. Sign up and log activity or upload spreadsheets from any software. If you run ERPNext, entries are created automatically from your transactions.

Which emission factors are used?

Kenyan companies use the Kenya national set (EPRA grid factor and IPCC 2006 fuel factors); others use the US EPA Emission Factors Hub. Purchased goods and processes use IPCC 2006 / UK DESNZ factors. Every factor is listed with its source.

Is our data private?

Yes. Each company sees only its own records, files and reports. Data is handled under the Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019.

Can you help us buy carbon credits?

We measure your footprint and record the credits you hold or retire. Buying credits is done with registries and project developers; we can point you to partners.
