Easily monitor CO₂e data for your fleet – with the DKV Carbon Monitor

Under the generic term "DKV Mobility Carbon Monitor", DKV Mobility is bundling its new CO₂e services for monitoring your DKV Mobility transaction-related fleet emissions. The new solutions "CO2e Emissions Tracker", "Annual CO₂e Report" and a solution for determining potential emission savings are part of the DKV Analytics premium package in the digital customer portal, the DKV Cockpit and (as far as the CO₂e Tracker is concerned) can also be accessed via the E-API.

The DKV Mobility Carbon Monitor provides a transparent overview of:

• Well-to-Wheel (WTW): the entire system limit of your fleet emissions:
• Well-to-Tank (WTT): Emissions before refueling/charging
• Tank-to-Wheel (TTW): Emissions after refueling/charging

In the new CO₂e tracker, emissions are already broken down into well-to-tank (before refueling/charging) and tank-to-wheel (after refueling/charging) at transaction level. The time period for the transaction overview can be freely selected and exported.

The associated annual CO₂e report covers a calendar year (01.01. - 31.12.) and provides you with an official fleet emissions balance (well-to-wheel level) and an associated methodology report, which you can share with your auditing company, for example, to fulfill the reporting obligations under the CSRD. This report can be downloaded collectively for several customer numbers.

The calculator for determining savings potential visualizes the emission savings potential of alternative fuels and e-mobility compared to fossil fuels.

The former "CO₂ Tracker" previously only listed the tank-to-wheel CO₂ emissions (after refueling/charging) based on the fuel consumption of your fleet via DKV Mobility card transactions. The new premium version shows more detailed well-to-fuel and tank-to-wheel data at transaction level.

The report will be available at the beginning of the following year of the respective subsequent year as soon as all transactions are known and all data quality checks have been completed.

You can use the documents from the DKV Mobility Carbon Monitor for submission to auditors. You can forward these documents to your auditing company.

In addition to the overview of the well-to-wheel emissions, a methodology report is included that describes the data basis and the modeling logic. You can forward these documents to your auditing company.

• Well-to-Tank (WTT): refers to the emissions generated during energy production, transportation and storage before the energy reaches the vehicle.
• Tank-to-Wheel (TTW): includes the emissions generated when energy is converted into kinetic energy in the vehicle.
• Well-to-Wheel (WTW): describes the entire life cycle emissions from energy generation to vehicle operation.

Recording the entire emissions chain is necessary for complete reporting and forms the basis for regulatory verification obligations, e.g. as part of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).

The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is a new EU directive that requires companies to report on the following points:

• Risks and opportunities in the area of social and environmental issues - also in relation to climate change
• Impact of their business activities on people and the environment

All companies listed on an EU-regulated market (with the exception of micro-enterprises) are covered by the new reporting obligation. This regulation applies at different times to different types of companies and will also directly affect German SMEs in the medium term.

Even if your company is not currently subject to the CSRD and is therefore directly obliged to report on the CO₂e balance, your larger customers could still require you to provide information on the CO₂e emissions of your transports if you provide logistics services for your customer.

This is because these companies must report on their Scope 3 emissions under the CSRD, which includes purchased logistics services. The ability to provide accurate data on your CO₂e emissions may therefore prove to be a competitive advantage for you in the coming years.

CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalent) is a unit of measurement that makes the climate impact of various greenhouse gases comparable by converting it to the effect of carbon dioxide (CO₂). As gases such as methane or nitrous oxide contribute much more to global warming than CO₂, their impact is expressed in CO₂e. This makes it easier to summarize and compare all emissions.

Country-specific values are taken into account for the emission accounting factors. Details on the modeling approach can be found in a detailed methodology report, which can also be used for verification purposes (e.g. in the context of the CSRD) for the auditors.

As the emission balances are based on aggregated calculations, the individual factors cannot be made available. Misuse can lead to misinterpretations. The data is protected by intellectual property and license agreements with our life cycle assessment provider "myclimate".

In the electricity sector, the well-to-tank values are modeled on the basis of the respective country-specific energy mix. All transactions reported in kWh are included. Detailed information can be found in the methodology report.
