Carbon footprint and decarbonization
You can't manage something you don't know well, and the carbon footprint is growing into a key aspect of sustainability. From the analysis of the carbon footprint of the enterprise and the product (in all ranges and phases), through dedicated decarbonization strategies to comprehensive reporting. This is how we work with companies on emissions.
Our services in this area:
Real Estate Services
Our life takes place mainly in buildings: home, work, school. About 30% of greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union come from the real estate sector (EEA, 2023). It is not surprising that the industry is covered by further regulations. We have effective solutions for this.

Our realizations
Faced with increasing market and legislative requirements and opportunities resulting from the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, the client decided to develop a decarbonization strategy based on the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) guidelines.
The main challenge for the company was to link decarbonisation objectives with economic objectives, including planned business growth. Therefore, it was crucial to choose the right methodology to set emission reduction targets consistent with the SBTi pathways, enabling the achievement of ambitious decarbonisation objectives while remaining consistent with the company's business strategy.
We started with in-depth market research, benchmark analysis and selection of suitable examples of decarbonization plans of companies from both Polish and international industry. An important element of the work was numerous interviews with the management and internal experts of the company, which allowed a thorough understanding of the business model, the specifics of the company and its development plans. The aim of these activities was to select adequate decarbonisation levers (tools and ways to achieve emission reductions) in line with market and technological realities.
The effects of each of the selected decarbonisation levers have been simulated in the reduction forecasts and calculated up to 2030. As a result, decarbonisation targets in line with SBTi pathways are based on precisely defined company actions, which significantly minimises the risk of greenwashing and at the same time increases the chances of effective implementation of the reduction targets.
The client was faced with the need to conduct a complete analysis of the organization's carbon footprint in all three scopes. This was crucial to meet the expectations of business partners and to report to CDP. The company already had previous experience in calculating the carbon footprint in ranges 1 and 2 (also implemented with VIVERNO), but the real challenge arose with the scope 3 calculated for the first time. Already at the conceptualization stage of the project, it was known that due to the requirements of the value chain, the carbon footprint analysis would be subject to third-party verification.
In response to the customer's needs, we developed a detailed plan for calculating the carbon footprint in ranges 1, 2 and 3. We guided the client through the selection of the range 3 category, helped to identify all emission sources and created appropriate forms. It should be noted that the 3 range covered as many as 10 categories, including such demanding parts as category 1: Purchased goods and services.
We have also prepared a team on the client side to be able to efficiently implement the individual stages. In addition, we selected qualitatively appropriate indicators, guided by the hierarchy of indicators contained in the GHG Protocol standard. The company's carbon footprint analysis report showed the company a complete picture of its operations in terms of greenhouse gas emissions. The calculation became part of the disclosure to the CDP and also formed the basis for the development of a decarbonization strategy.
Due to the entry into force of new regulations on imports of high-carbon goods from outside the EU, the customer was obliged to submit CBAM reports. Contact with producers outside the European Union turned out to be an undoubted challenge. VIVERNO's task was to identify goods covered by the CBAM mechanism, to contact suppliers/manufacturers in order to obtain the necessary data and to periodically prepare and submit reports in the interim register.
We would like to express our satisfaction with the cooperation with VIVERNO, which supports us in the field of CBAM reporting. With extensive experience working with clients in the energy and environmental industries, this company offers comprehensive CBAM reporting support, including analysis of customer needs, data collection, calculation and report preparation as required.
In the first place, we conducted an analysis of customs declarations to identify goods covered by the CBAM. We have prepared dedicated materials to facilitate the collection of basic installation data. In addition, we have provided information materials and guides prepared by the European Commission to raise awareness of the CBAM requirements of DOMEX's trading partners.
Thanks to our support, the client was able to submit the report on time according to all the requirements. Currently, we continue to work on obtaining real data so that subsequent reports are based on values coming directly from the manufacturer's installation. Based on our experience in calculating the carbon footprint of a product, in order to improve the process of collecting data on actual emissions, we have developed an individual instruction for the form made available by the EC. In addition, we have prepared an internal policy setting out the principles for the implementation of the CBAM reporting obligation in the organization.
In 2024, the client once again chose to disclose environmental information through CDP. This time the questionnaire focused on the issue of climate change and the impact on water resources. VIVERNO's task was to support the company in creating point scenarios, preparing the company to develop the data necessary for disclosure and filling out a questionnaire in the CDP portal.
Working with the client on the CDP report included all stages of the company's preparation for disclosure. Initially, we conducted an analysis of the company's carbon footprint in all 3 ranges in accordance with the requirements of the GHG Protocol standard, which allowed for a more comprehensive response in CDP regarding the manufacturer's emissivity. As you know, the CDP system evolves and constantly makes changes in the guidelines, question formulas, scoring methodology, as well as the appearance of the questionnaire. Therefore, we got acquainted with all the updates in detail.
Then, we prepared our own data aggregation tools to ensure the easy flow of information. We have also developed a separate form for analysing risks and opportunities related to climate and water. At all times, we provided full support both in terms of content and organization.
Do you have any questions? We have the answers!
As part of the service, does VIVERNO also develop a strategy to achieve the objectives reported to the SBTi?
We offer both support throughout the process of joining the SBTi initiative, as well as advising and developing a decarbonisation strategy that meets the requirements of the SBTi. However, these are separate actions. Companies that cooperate with us can choose both services or only one of them.
Who are the EUDR requirements?
Large companies have the greatest obligations to EUDR, which have to collect data on the country of origin of the products, their number and the location of the parcels where they were produced. They are also responsible for carrying out the due diligence process and making a statement on the matter. Micro, small and medium-sized enterprises are required to keep basic data about their suppliers.
Does VIVERNO count the company's carbon footprint in all 3 ranges?
Yes, at VIVERNO we carry out the calculation of the company's carbon footprint in the full spectrum, i.e. all 3 ranges.
What does the EcoVadis scoring system look like?
The score of a given company is on a scale from 0 to 100 points. The organization can get the following medals:
- platinum — top 1%,
- gold — top 5%,
- silver — top 15%,
- brown — top 35%.
In addition, badges are awarded:
- Committed company — minimum score of 45 points,
- progressive company (Fast Mover) — a score of 34—44 points and an increase of at least 6 points from the previous rating in the last 18 months.
To what extent does VIVERNO offer ESG consulting for reporting?
Our clients go through all the reporting stages provided for by the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). We investigate, among other things, financial and operational control/dependence criteria, conduct thorough regulatory analysis, check competitive disclosures, analyze stakeholders, perform dual significance assessments, select AR16 indicators with mapping to ESRS disclosures, determine critical points for data collection and prepare information collection models for teams within the company. In the next steps, we verify the historical data, obtain and standardize the data and prepare the content of the report. The composition of the report can also be enriched with graphic design.
What does the price of an energy audit of an enterprise depend on?
The cost of the study depends, among others, on the size of the audited enterprise, the number of processes or the number of plants.
What is the Competitiveness Base?
It is an online database of offers containing announcements of beneficiaries. The publication of announcements is a prerequisite for meeting the so-called competitiveness principle. Any investment over 50 thousand. PLN should be included in the database. The principle of competitiveness applies to beneficiaries benefiting from the European Regional Development Fund, the European Social Fund and the Cohesion Fund and is regulated at the level of the guidelines on eligibility of expenditure.
