Frequently asked questions

FAQs about the Tanso Supplier Portal

What are primary data?

Primary data are company- or supplier-specific data, such as actual emissions values of a product or process – as opposed to generic average values from databases.

What role do PCFs from the supply chain play for my company?

PCFs (Product Carbon Footprints) from the supply chain provide accurate Scope 3.1 data and are essential for reliable CO₂ accounting and CBAM-compliant reporting.

How do I set climate targets correctly?

Climate targets should be science-based (e.g., SBTi-compliant), measurable, time-bound, and realistic – aligned with Scope 1–3 and backed by a clear reduction pathway.

What changes are expected from the Omnibus-Initiative regarding CBAM?

The Omnibus proposal introduces simplifications for CBAM: until the end of 2025, companies may report standard values instead of primary data. This gives importers more time and temporarily reduces the effort required for collecting emissions data in the supply chain.

What role does PCF play for Scope 3.1?

PCFs form the basis for robust Scope 3.1 calculations, as they reflect the actual emissions of purchased products and materials – instead of unspecific average values.

How do I calculate Scope 3.1 emissions without primary data?

Without primary data, calculations rely on generic emission factors and estimates (e.g., from Ecoinvent or DEFRA) – less precise, but possible in the short term.

What are the benefits of primary data for my CCF calculation & decarbonization efforts?

Primary data improve the accuracy of CO₂ accounting, help identify key emission drivers, and enable targeted decarbonization measures and better supplier management.
