ADMIRAL’s multimodal digital marketplace in the logistics industry: addressing Corporate Sustainable Development Reporting Directive (CSRD)

Abstract

Indirect, external emissions, also known as Scope 3 industrial emissions, do not have to be reported by companies in the EU. Many companies currently only focus on their Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions caused by their own energy consumption and ignore outsourced emissions. However, this will change with the new Revised Industrial Emissions Directive, which will require all companies operating in the EU to fulfil this reporting obligation by 2028. To achieve this, reliable and convenient tools are needed to measure, calculate, combine and report these emissions. To meet this challenge, the ADMIRAL project is developing a marketplace for logistics services. One of its key features is the ability to compile Scope 3 emissions data for multimodal logistics chains. By providing emissions data, the marketplace enables freight owners to make informed decisions about transport options. This in turn can help to reduce emissions. The marketplace brings together sellers and buyers of logistics services as well as developers and integrators of service solutions on a single platform. This ecosystem promotes the common goal of achieving a carbon-neutral world. This article discusses the legal framework in the European Union that obliges companies to report CO2 emissions. It also presents the ADMIRAL project and its results in response to these regulations. In particular, it looks at the role of the ADMIRAL digital marketplace in meeting the legal requirements and facilitating compliance within the industry.
