Navigating the Corporate Sustainability and Responsibility Directive (CSRD) with Fleetenergies' RILCO2: A Focus on Scope 3 Emissions
The Corporate Sustainability and Responsibility Directive (CSRD) has revolutionized the logistics and supply chain industry, requiring companies to disclose their environmental footprint, including greenhouse gas emissions from their operations[^1^]. This means shippers must actively monitor, measure, and manage their carbon emissions to comply with the CSRD. But how can they overcome the challenges associated with this directive, particularly those concerning Scope 3 emissions?
Scope 3 Emissions: The Hidden Challenge
Scope 3 emissions refer to all indirect emissions occurring in a company's value chain, both upstream and downstream[^1^]. These emissions, although not directly controlled or owned by the reporting organization, contribute significantly to its total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
The challenges with Scope 3 emissions primarily lie in their complexity. Gathering accurate and specific data across the value chain can be time-consuming and resource-intensive[^2^]. Furthermore, a lack of standardized methodologies for measuring and reporting Scope 3 emissions often leads to inconsistencies in emission values between companies[^7^].
