Smart, digital management of product emissions with Nexigen® Data Services

Companies that want to decarbonize their value chain usually face two challenges. They need to determine the emissions data for their purchased products and then identify potential for optimization.

With the Nexigen® PCF Algorithm, we took the first step towards helping our customers do just that, because the solution can calculate individualized product carbon footprints for nearly all of Klöckner’s 190,000 products.

This is how the Product Carbon Footprint facilitates decisions by our customer

The next milestone – Nexigen® Data Services

With Nexigen® Data Services, our customers can actively manage the CO2 emissions of their Klöckner products so they can reach their reduction targets.

To ensure Nexigen® Data Services are easy and convenient to use, we focused on three core functionalities when we developed the technology solutionNexigen® Data Services brings the COemissions history of all products procured through Klöckner & Co together in one place to provide a clear and transparent overview. Customers also receive specific suggestions for greener alternatives and directly see ways to potentially reduce  CO2 emissions compared to previous orders.

Blockchain technology is revolutionizing CO₂ emissions tracking

The use of open blockchain technology allows for a high degree of data integrity as well as seamless transparency along the entire value chain, while at the same time raising the bar for CO2 emissions tracking in the steel industry and enabling customers to take targeted steps to reduce emissions on the basis of a reliable and precise analysis.
