Carbon Reporting
Carbon reporting is the process of presenting an organisation's calculated greenhouse gas emissions in a structured format for internal review, regulatory disclosure, or external stakeholders.
Definition
Carbon reporting is the output stage of carbon accounting — taking calculated emissions figures and presenting them in the format required by a specific audience, whether that's an internal sustainability review, a regulatory disclosure under CSRD or SECR, or a voluntary framework like CDP.
Why It Matters
The same underlying emissions data often needs to be reported in different formats for different audiences, so reporting flexibility — without needing to recalculate from scratch each time — is a practical necessity for most sustainability teams.
