Layer 04/ evidence
ESG, operated.
Not reported.
The same metered record that runs the plant produces the disclosure. Metered where possible, integrated where the data already lives, audited where it does not.
The problem/ as plants actually meet it
Sustainability reporting is usually assembled once a year from invoices and spreadsheets, by people who were not in the room when the energy decisions were made. It is slow, hard to audit, and cannot answer a customer asking for the carbon in a specific batch.
How it works/ in delivery order
What we
actually do.
Scope 1, 2 and 3 derived from the same fifteen-minute data that operates the plant, so the number in the report and the number on the screen have the same source.
BRSR Core-format, CBAM, CDP and customer-specific questionnaires generated from that record rather than re-keyed.
Every figure traces back to a meter, an integration or a stated assumption — which is what makes it survive an audit.
Carbon per unit of output where the metering supports it: per litre, per kg, per batch, per pack.
Boundaries/ where this stops
What it
does not do.
Boundaries must be stated
A carbon number without a system boundary and an emission factor is not a number. Both are explicit, and changing either changes the result.
Scope 3 is mostly other people's data
Value-chain emissions depend on supplier disclosure. Where it does not exist, it is estimated and labelled, not asserted.
We are not your assurance provider
esgOS produces auditable evidence. Assurance and certification remain with your auditor.
What we need/ to start
- Meter and fuel data
- Emission factors applicable to your jurisdiction and year
- Organisational and operational boundaries
- Supplier data for value-chain scopes
What drives the economics/ the real levers
- Reporting effort avoided
- Customer and tender requirements met
- Exposure under carbon mechanisms, where applicable
- The value of being able to answer a specific question quickly
Questions/ asked most often
Which frameworks?
Can it replace our auditor?
In short/ esgOS
esgOS is jouleWise's evidence solution: traceable Scope 1, 2 and 3, and the disclosure workflows on top of it.
The same metered record that runs the plant produces the disclosure. Metered where possible, integrated where the data already lives, audited where it does not. Sustainability reporting is usually assembled once a year from invoices and spreadsheets, by people who were not in the room when the energy decisions were made. It is slow, hard to audit, and cannot answer a customer asking for the carbon in a specific batch.
What to take away
- One record: Scope 1, 2 and 3 derived from the same fifteen-minute data that operates the plant, so the number in the report and the number on the screen have the same source.
- Disclosure formats: BRSR Core-format, CBAM, CDP and customer-specific questionnaires generated from that record rather than re-keyed.
- Traceability: Every figure traces back to a meter, an integration or a stated assumption — which is what makes it survive an audit.
- Product-level carbon: Carbon per unit of output where the metering supports it: per litre, per kg, per batch, per pack.
What it assumes
- Boundaries must be stated. A carbon number without a system boundary and an emission factor is not a number. Both are explicit, and changing either changes the result.
- Scope 3 is mostly other people's data. Value-chain emissions depend on supplier disclosure. Where it does not exist, it is estimated and labelled, not asserted.
