Greenhouse Gas Inventories and Climate Action Planning

We work with organizations and all levels of government to measure direct and indirect GHG emissions across your whole value chain, consistent with internationally recognized standards. Blue Dot Analytics also provides support for organizations reporting emissions under the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act (NGER) and the CDP, and for governments in meeting their requirements under alliances such as the Under2 Coalition, C40, and the Global Covenant of Mayors. Once GHG emissions are measured, we can work with you to manage your emissions using the following approach:

Project-based emissions assessments

When faced with many different pathways for your project, measuring the lifecycle impacts of the project's alternative plathways can identify the most cost efficient and environmentally friendly option. Blue Dot Analytics provides holistic project-based emissions assessments, including:

  • Compliance-level GHG assessments for Environmental Impact Statements (EIS) for projects under consideration
  • Comparative analyses of alternative projects to identify their relative costs, energy intensities, and GHG emission intensities

Product-based lifecycle assessments (LCA)

Measuring the lifecycle impacts of your product can identify energy and emission hotspots within your supply chain and opportunities for creating greater efficiencies and cost savings. Blue Dot Analytics will work with you and your supply chain and tailor the level of effort required to meet your LCA objectives. We combine an LCA approach consistent with internationally recognized ISO standards for LCA while leveraging existing national and internationally recognized LCA datasets to complement any data from you and your suppliers.
