Continia Sustainability aligns with the GHG Protocol international standards, enabling reporting across all three scopes. The following documents were taken into account during the development of the Continia Sustainability solution:

  • The GHG Protocol – a Corporate Accounting Reporting Standard (2004).
  • The Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Accounting and Reporting Standard (2011).
  • Technical Guidance for Calculating Scope 3 Emissions (v1.0) – supplement to the Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Accounting & Reporting Standard (2013).
  • GHG Protocol Scope 2 Guidance – an amendment to the GHG Protocol Corporate Standard (2015).
  • Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) - for UK customers, we considered the SECR requirements to enable energy usage reporting.
  • European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) - the data points from the E1 sheet of the ESRS are in alignment with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive 2022/2464/EU. These data points include reporting on Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, as well as the energy mix of purchased electricity, which covers renewable, nuclear, and fossil fuel sources.

Note

Currently, we cover part of the environmental materiality assessment. However, our plans involve expanding this coverage and fully including assessments of social and governance aspects.
