Comprehensive assessments and data sets for vehicle use phase and car manufacturers' Scope 3 Category 11 carbon emissions
Decarbonization is a competitive factor for the automotive industry. Emissions that occur after a vehicle is sold (Scope 3 Category 11 – also known as the use phase) currently makes up about 70-80% of a automaker's carbon profile and potentially more for auto suppliers. Reducing the use phase carbon footprint is a primary goal for major automakers. Missing those goals, particularly in an environment where regulatory requirements are growing more stringent, is a huge financial risk.
Reliable and consistent carbon accounting information is a key asset highly demanded by automotive stakeholders to support their decarbonization journey. S&P Global Mobility offers datasets in a consistent and comparable format to enable benchmarking, target tracking, competitive analysis, and self-reporting.
Automotive Carbon Accounting Benefits
Our Carbon Accounting Downstream solution offers comprehensive datasets of global car manufacturers' and vehicle models’ lifecycle carbon emissions including use-phase, well-to-wheel emissions (or Scope 3 Category 11).
The database allows the automotive stakeholders to:
- Self-report on carbon accounting
- Set industry benchmarks around carbon emissions reduction targets
- Track industry/corporate decarbonization target fulfilment
- Plan for competitive strategies to achieve carbon reduction goals
- Make supply chain or investment decisions to improve decarbonization efforts
- Use reliable data sources and a consistent methodology
Compare and contrast well-to-wheel CO2 emissions
