As a family business based in Mannheim, we are

your expert partner for CO₂ reporting

Green Vision Solutions, our family business, was founded in Mannheim in 2021. We are a reliable partner for medium-sized companies in greenhouse gas reporting and have already received several business awards for our work. Our TÜV-certified process (independent technical inspection body), personally supported by our specialists, enables you to get started with CO₂ reporting easily, without any prior knowledge. We take care of most of the work, are always at your side, and ensure that your data is collected in accordance with standards.

More than just software: Your team for carbon accounting

With the help of our intuitive input software, you can record Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions in accordance with the GHG Protocol and identify important KPIs and emission hotspots. We also offer the creation of Product Carbon Footprints (PCFs) at the product level. A personal project mentor will accompany you throughout the entire process in several consultation meetings and beyond.

Practice-oriented knowledge transfer

Our seminars and knowledge packages, valued by in-house sustainability managers, sustainability consultants, and auditors, provide in-depth knowledge and practical skills in greenhouse gas reporting that can be effectively applied in companies. We are proud to offer practice-oriented training courses that support you in the practical implementation of your sustainability reporting.

We are more than just software: Our journey began with the realization that companies need more than just digital solutions to track their CO₂ emissions—and not necessarily comprehensive CSRD software. They need a partner who combines consulting, individual support, and practical solutions.

We have been supporting companies with CO₂ accounting long before the new CSRD requirements came into force. Now we offer a flexible and secure approach to successful CO₂ accounting for medium-sized companies that want to meet the expectations of their business partners, the requirements along the supply chain, or the new climate targets of the CSRD. Our personal project mentors bring experience from a wide range of industries and accompany you from start to finish.

Whether voluntarily in accordance with the VSME standard or as part of the CSRD, we provide structured and audit-proof GHG balances that comply with recognized reporting formats. In close cooperation with auditors, banks, and chambers of commerce, we have specifically developed our offering to enable medium-sized companies to achieve transparency at an early stage and to provide practical training.

We are partners to small and medium-sized businesses– over 300 companies have already joined us on the path to measuring and reducing their CO₂ emissions. Our dedicated team and comprehensive expertise make us a trusted partner for your CO₂ accounting.

ACTING NOW IS WORTH IT

When it comes to sustainability or ecological viability, climate change and human influence on it are central, as in hardly any other area can environmental impacts be measured and documented so well with figures. The indicator here is anthropogenic emissions, i.e., greenhouse gas emissions caused by humans that contribute to global warming.

What does this mean in the context of sustainable business? Every company should keep its greenhouse gas emissions – which are unavoidable in the provision of business services – as low as possible. Sustainable business cannot be achieved at the push of a button, but a continuous optimization process based on ecological indicators is the crucial approach.

By recording the greenhouse gas emissions generated by your company, product, or service, you can identify potential for emission reduction. This enables you to optimize your processes and also save costs. You communicate to your customers and suppliers that you take responsibility for the emissions for which you are responsible. This allows you to build trust and adapt to the requirements of your business partners.

Acting now is worthwhile

Knowing your emissions will prepare you for predictable, more stringent regulatory requirements, such as increasing greenhouse gas emissions taxes or the mandatory implementation of investment-intensive measures. Incorporating this component into your corporate risk management is essential in the long term.

Due to the ongoing societal demand for climate protection, even the European Central Bank, under Christine Lagarde, has now embarked on the inevitable course of preferentially allocating capital to companies that demonstrably address climate protection. The same trend is evident in the capital flow of large asset managers, such as BlackRock. In a letter to his CEOs, its chairman, Larry Fink, wrote that companies that do not address environmental issues seriously and transparently are no longer viable and will therefore no longer be invested in.

Therefore, pursuing climate protection professionally and verifiably as a company is inevitable in the near future. If your company is among the first to address this situation, you will establish a pioneering effect that prepares you for compliance with foreseeable legal requirements, results in lower capital costs in the long term, and guarantees market advantages!
