SERVICES

How We Help You Comply

Expert Support for Climate Reporting Compliance

Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions Measurement & Reporting

Comprehensive support for measuring and reporting Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions, in line with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol for consistency and transparency.

Life Cycle Analysis (LCA)

Evaluate environmental impacts across your entire value chain—from raw material extraction to product disposal—to identify opportunities for improvement and innovation. LCA helps optimize resource efficiency, reduce costs, and inform Scope 3 emissions reporting.

Climate Risk Disclosures

Guidance on reporting climate-related risks and opportunities, aligning your disclosures with leading frameworks like the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG-P) and IFRS/ISSB sustainability standards.

Assurance Services​

Independent third-party review and validation of your climate data to enhance credibility. Our ISO 14064-3 aligned assurance services include third-party verification, carbon offset assurance, review of emissions data and methodology accuracy, and reporting readiness review.

Climate Reduction Plans

Development of actionable emissions reduction roadmaps aligned with science-based targets (SBTi). We help you set achievable goals and strategies to reduce carbon emissions in line with climate science.

CDP

Gain clarity and confidence in your environmental disclosures with our expert support. We guide you through CDP’s integrated climate, forest, and water questionnaire—helping you collect the right data, report accurately, and improve your score. Whether you’re responding to investor demands or aiming to lead on sustainability, Blue Sky Climate simplifies the journey.

CBAM

Support EU customer reporting under the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) with structured, product-level embedded emissions calculations. We help non-EU exporters prepare defensible direct and indirect emissions data, documented methodologies, and buyer-ready summaries aligned with EU reporting requirements.

Product Carbon Footprint (PCF)

Regulations are increasingly requiring product-level carbon data. The EU Battery Regulation mandates Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) declarations for EV and industrial batteries. CBAM requires embedded emissions for goods entering the EU. And CSRD Scope 3 is driving demand for product-level data across supply chains. 

Blue Sky Climate delivers ISO 14067:2018-aligned PCF studies that produce defensible, audit-ready data aligned with evolving regulatory requirements.

EU Digital Product Passport Readiness

If you sell products into Europe, product-level sustainability data may soon be required under the EU Digital Product Passport (DPP) framework. 

The EU Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) requires most products sold into the EU to carry a DPP, a machine-readable record of materials, supplier origin, carbon footprint, product care and repairability, and end-of-life disposal options. This is done by conducting a sku-level life cycle analysis and onboarding your tier 1, 2, and even 3 suppliers.

Batteries are already in scope. Textiles and fashion follow in 2027.
