Carbonostics Analysis Planner
The Carbonostics Analysis Planner provides a step-by-step guide to gathering the data needed to begin your Carbonostics analysis.
Start with what you have. It is advised to begin a Carbonostics analysis with as little or as much information as is readily available. Most often, readily available data will suffice to show where the hotspots are in your product's lifecycle. The Carbonostics Planner flags the data that is required to run an analysis.
When the hotspots are identified, you can dig a little deeper in this area to get more data and modify your analysis using comparative assessment scenarios.
For example: Company X spent two weeks interviewing staff and analyzing the energy use in their facility. Upon review of their Carbonostics analysis, they found that energy represented less than 10% of the product's lifecycle impact and, therefore, could have been estimated.
Lesson learned: Company X should have started their Carbonostics analysis with readily available data and used secondary data from the Carbonostics Database on energy consumption for food processes because the tool will identify the hotspots that need more precise data gathering. |
