Scope 2 reporting platform

Stop reporting emissions you never emitted.

Emissions Intelligence is a Scope 2 reporting platform. Standard carbon accounting values every unit of electricity at an annual average, so the figure you disclose describes the national picture rather than yours. We build your reporting from half-hourly meter data instead — and produce auditable location-based, market-based and Scope 3 T&D reports from it.

No obligation. We’ll show you the method on your own consumption profile.

Three reports, one data source

Everything your disclosure needs, from the same meter data

01 · Location-based

Location-based emissions

Calculated on grid carbon intensity at the times you actually drew power, half-hour by half-hour — not one annual figure applied to your yearly total.

02 · Market-based

Market-based emissions

Reconciled against the electricity you contracted for, including your REGOs and supplier residual mix, so your certificates are matched to consumption rather than assumed.

03 · Scope 3

Transmission & distribution losses

The Scope 3 category most often estimated or skipped entirely. Derived from the same half-hourly data, so it reconciles with your Scope 2 rather than contradicting it.

The result

A lower number, and a more defensible one

Accuracy usually sounds like a compliance cost. Here it works the other way: when the calculation reflects what you actually consumed and when, the reported figure typically falls — and every line of it traces back to metered data an auditor can follow.

How it works

From meter reading to audited report

No new hardware, no change to your supply contracts. We work from data you already have a right to.

Step 01

Connect your data

Half-hourly consumption from your supplier or meter operator, plus your supply contracts and certificates. One-off setup per site.

Step 02

Into the reporting matrix

Your consumption is matched against grid data alongside the contracts, certificates and supply records an audit requires — so every figure carries its evidence from the start.

Step 03

Reconcile your certificates

REGOs and contracted renewable supply are matched against consumption to produce the market-based figure, and to show where certificates are doing no work.

Step 04

Export the report

Location-based, market-based and Scope 3 T&D, with the underlying half-hourly data attached, in the format your auditor and your disclosure need.

Why the number falls

Averages are not conservative. They’re just wrong in both directions.

An annual average factor assumes every kilowatt-hour is identical. It isn’t — and the assumption costs you twice over.

  • When you use power matters. Grid intensity swings by a factor of four across a single day. A site that runs overnight or through the middle of the day is buying much cleaner electricity than the average implies — and paying for the difference in offsets.
  • Estimated data is never in your favour. Gaps and missing readings get filled with estimates, and estimates are built to be safe rather than accurate. We track every missing data point and every zero in the series, so you can see how much of your figure is measured and how much is assumed.
  • And the standard is moving this way anyway. The GHG Protocol Scope 2 consultation closed in January 2026, with hourly matching of consumption to generation high on the agenda. Building the capability now makes that change a switch rather than a project.

The hidden carbon leak: how tracking transmission & distribution losses cuts your Scope 3 footprint

The category most companies estimate — and what happens to the number when you stop estimating it.

Why green doesn’t always mean green: location-based and market-based reporting

Why Scope 2 needs two figures, what each one is actually measuring, and which one your stakeholders are reading.

Bucking bureaucracy

Reporting obligations keep widening. The administrative answer is automation, not more spreadsheets.
