OpenCO2.net is a carbon footprint platform developed by Clonet. On OpenCO2.net, you will find Finland’s most extensive emission factor database and standards-based tools to promote companies’ journey towards carbon neutrality.
The tools allow businesses effortlessly and reliably to determine and monitor their greenhouse gas emissions, model the emission trends, find relevant and reliable emission factors and increase their positive carbon handprint.
It is also possible to create various customized emission calculators on the platform.
Our calculators are based on the world’s best-known and most used standards. The organization-specific carbon footprint calculator is based on the Greenhouse Gas Protocol standards, and the product-specific carbon footprint calculator on the ISO 14067 standard.
Constantly growing emissions database is the most extensive one in Finland. We have collected the emission factors from the best sources, such as statistics, publications of research institutes, scientific articles, and directly from companies that have calculated the carbon footprints of their products. The database is updated twice a month.
The platform has been developed by experts, and the needs of companies have been taken into account in the development process. The development work is based on the latest scientific information and the best-known international standards. DNV has validated the calculation methods and data collection process of OpenCO2.net.
