Emissions calculation

Calculate emissions across your supply chain

Add simple and verified emission calculation tools to existing software, with support for all transport modes and well-to-wheel (WTW) calculations.

This CO₂e data can be used for:

Commercial offerings (e.g. tenders & invoices)

Official transport documents (e.g. CMR, BL etc)

Reporting, BI dashboarding & analysis purposes

Route planning, dispatching & control tower (e.g. integrate CO2e as a KPI)

CO2e estimations in e-commerce (e.g. predictive CO2e in delivery options)

Accredited methodology

Stay aligned with ISO standards & local regulations

Carry out emissions calculations using validated datasets and globally approved methodologies, with full audit trails and easily exportable outputs.

ISO 14083 & GLEC accredited calculation method

Aligned with new CountEmissionsEU methodology

Highest standards of data security and management

How does BigMile's Emission API compare to the in-built emissions calculator or API add-on in my TMS?

While several TMS platforms include an in-built emissions calculator or simple add-on, these typically don't provide the shipment-level accuracy or insights on emissions reduction needed for compliance and customer reporting. BigMile's Emissions API is already integrated into 30+ TMS and supply chain platforms, so if you're using one of these, accurate emissions calculations are available directly within your existing workflow.

In which software is BigMile's Emission API available?

BigMile's Emissions API is available in 30+ software, ranging from transport management systems (TMS) to digital freight platforms. This includes DeliveryMatch, e2open, paazl, MendriX, ICT Logistics, and Ofload. Contact us for a full list of our software partners.

¿Qué tipos de emisiones permite calcular BigMile?

BigMile permite calcular las emisiones de CO₂e relacionadas con el transporte y la cadena de suministro, que pueden ser emisiones de Alcance 1, 2 y 3, dependiendo de si las actividades de transporte son propias o subcontratadas. Estas emisiones suelen clasificarse en las subcategorías de Alcance 3.4 (transporte y distribución ascendente) y Alcance 3.9 (transporte y distribución descendente) del Protocolo de Gases de Efecto Invernadero.

¿Qué índices de emisión utiliza BigMile?

BigMile utiliza el GLEC Framework como fuente principal de índices de emisión, para todos los modos de transporte, en sus cálculos de emisiones de CO₂e. Esto se ajusta a la norma internacional ISO 14083. Cuando los clientes pueden facilitar datos primarios, como el consumo real de combustible, BigMile los utiliza para obtener una mayor precisión, recurriendo a los índices predeterminados de GLEC cuando no se dispone de datos primarios.

How does pricing work for the Emissions API?

BigMile's Emissions API is priced based on usage, and BigMile works with each software vendor to properly integrate the API. There is a 15-day free trial period available for all new clients.

How is data ingested and standardized by the Emissions API?

BigMile's Emissions API connects directly to existing systems such as transport management systems (TMS), ERP platforms, and other systems, enabling transport and logistics data to flow into BigMile without manual uploads. Data is automatically standardized and validated in line with ISO 14083:2023, ensuring that emissions calculations are always based on clean, reliable datasets.

¿Cómo calcula BigMile las emisiones cuando no se dispone de datos primarios de algunos transportistas o proveedores?

BigMile da prioridad al uso de datos primarios para obtener cálculos de emisiones lo más precisos posible. Cuando no se dispone de datos primarios, BigMile aplica los factores de emisión predeterminados del GLEC Framework y calcula las emisiones basándose en los detalles del trayecto y del envío.

Los usuarios también pueden solicitar datos de emisiones directamente a los subcontratistas a través de la plataforma para mejorar la calidad de los datos con el tiempo. Para más detalles sobre cómo se gestionan los datos que faltan en situaciones concretas, póngase en contacto con nuestro equipo.
