How do AI emission factor recommendations work?
Tracera’s AI evaluates the product or activity, its composition, and manufacturing context to recommend the most appropriate emission factors from supported databases.
AI emission factor recommendations in Tracera are designed to streamline the process of identifying appropriate emission factors across emission factor databases for Scope 3 calculations.
When data is uploaded to the Scope 3 platform, AI processes the input data to understand the underlying product, service, or activity context. Based on the relevant Scope 3 category, calculation methodology (e.g., spend- or activity-based), and available data fields, the platform generates emission factor recommendations from supported databases.
AI also identifies patterns and similarities across related products or line items within the same dataset, allowing users to review and apply emission factors in bulk where appropriate. This helps reduce repetitive manual work while maintaining user oversight and control over final emission factor selection.
Overall, AI recommendations are intended to significantly reduce the time and effort required to identify and apply suitable emission factors as part of Scope 3 calculations.
