The Data Challenge

Worldwide, organizations are being asked to report on their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.  But carbon management is a huge data challenge.  The necessary information exists in different systems, in different locations, is often on paper, and must be analyzed using protocols that are still evolving.  Increasingly, results must also be available for auditing by outside experts.  Manual data gathering and analysis can be error-prone, resulting in significant risk when results are being released publicly, and making audit processes labour-intensive and expensive.

VELO is available online, 24/7, accessible from anywhere.  There is no hardware to buy, no software to install, and no need for expensive technical staff.  Relying on the data available within your organization already, no specialized knowledge in carbon analysis is requires.  With VELO, you can be up and running cost-effectively and almost immediately.
