Monthly Data Summary Report for Scope 3 Emissions

There are little to no reports available for Scope 3 (other than dashboards and PowerReports). Can you please create a Monthly Data Summary Report for Scope 3 Emissions report (excel, not dashboard or PowerReport) which would be required for an au...

Add Canada-Based Intensity Factor Sets for Scope 3 Estimates

Our understanding, from speaking with IBM, is that it is possible for Envizi to estimate Scope 3 (tenant) emissions, for portions of locations where energy data is not provided. However, it is also our understanding that these estimates are made u...

Ability to categorise Meter Data under Scope 3

Currently, Envizi does not allow the Scope 3 categorisation of meter data. For example, Water Data if sourced via a meter cannot be captured as Scope 3 Cat 1 - Purchased Goods and Services, but it can be if captured via an account. This prevents t...

Allow choosing the scope category where indirect emissions calculate in custom factors or make extra field for Scope 3 cat. 1

There are raw materials and ancillary materials that cause scope 1 emissions when used but they also have upstream emissions (scope 3) which should be taken into account too. Currently indirect emissions in custom factors seem to calculate to scop...

Separate FERA emissions into component parts (WTT, T&D, WTT of T&D)

It is currently not possible in Envizi to view the emissions of the component parts of FERA; they are calculated and reported together as the 'indirect' emissions of scope 1 and 2. This is an issue for several reasons: The latest version of the SB...

EcoInvent - Average Data Emission Factors

Hi, We have clients that are using EcoInvent emission factors and they would like to use those factors in Envizi as well. Can we have EcoInvent database integrated into Envizi? Thank you in advance.

Provide contextual information for the AI model to use to refine its suggested categorisation for spend based.

I have recently tried to use the AI for categorisation of data for hospitals and it's a mixed result. I have tried steering the results towards medical related classifications but this tended to reduce the accuracy. If the model processed each lin...

Ability to create Scope 3 EUC account styles

Currently, we have a set of EUC natural gas and electricity accounts that are classified as Scope 1 and 2 that need to be classified as Scope 3 (i.e., they are leased sites), and Support has indicated this is not currently supported by the Envizi-...

Have a report available to view quantity entered in an account (e.g. kg, USD, L), in comparison to the total emissions it has produced and emission factor.

This would be useful for conducting audits on data in the system for specific years and identifying hotspots. Doing this also increases the transparency of emissions from each data type and account. This is a feature that we would like internally ...

Need to be able to train AI for scope 3 file ingestion

Our Scope 3 AI solution works on a pretrained model but offers currently no ability to learn from clients choices. With no prompting or uploading feature the AI value is limited. If a client categorizes a raw file and 85% is correct. Then the next...
