Igniting Success with eDeL-EAR for Real-Time Visualisation of Carbon Footprint

‘eDeL-EAR’, is a SaaS-based solution, accredited by GLEC and ISO 14083. It is our Transport Emission Analytics Platform that provides real-time carbon emissions data on a subscription basis, enabling customers to decarbonise their supply chains. The platform focuses on transportation and offers insights into Scope 3 emissions, emissions intensity, fuel usage, and more.

You can access the eDeL-EAR platform by registering with us at: https://edel-ear.mahindralogistics.com/ and subscribing the most suitable plan as per your requirement.

The GHG Protocol Corporate Standard classifies a company’s Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions into three scopes. Scope 1 emissions are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources e.g. Fuel consumed in premises for owned DG Set. Scope 2 emissions are indirect emissions from the generation of purchased energy e.g. emissions resulting out of electricity consumed that is purchased from grid. Scope 3 emissions are all indirect emissions (not included in scope 2) that occur in the value chain of the reporting company, including both upstream and downstream emissions. These are emitted through functions not directly within the organization’s control but indirectly impacting its value chain. These emissions are also the biggest contributor to an organization’s carbon footprint and hence play a vital role in accomplishing sustainable logistics.

The primary factors considered for calculating Scope 3 emissions are the mode of transport, type of vehicle, fuel, distance, and weight of the shipment. eDeL-EAR follows the Global Logistics Emissions Council (GLEC) Framework, which is aligned with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol), a globally recognized set of standards and guidelines for measuring, disclosing, and managing emissions, providing a framework for organizations to assess their carbon footprint and develop strategies to reduce emissions.

The user-friendly platform of eDeL-EAR allows businesses to get real-time visualization of their Scope 3 emissions resulting out of services provided by Mahindra Logistics Limited. It is an analytical tool that helps them to view carbon emission reports and make informed decisions in their journey towards adopting green logistics practices and net-zero commitments. It also allows the visibility on the emissions avoided due to the existing green transport solutions that Mahindra Logistics Limited is using for that business.

It allows the business a complete visibility on total emissions mode wise and fuel wise, emission intensity, total shipments, total distance, green solution wise avoided emissions along with shipment level visibility.

• Automated Real-Time Monitoring, GLEC Framework, ISO 14083
• Green-e: Sustainability Co-pilot
• Report shipment emissions across lifecycle (TTW-tank to wheel, WTT-well to tank) aligned to BRSR, CSRD reporting.
• System generated Emissions Avoidance Report

Absolutely! With eDeL-EAR’s detailed analytics and the carbon emissions calculator, you can input one or more modes of transport to get an accurate report. Since multimodal transport is gaining momentum, Mahindra Logistics gives a drop-down to choose a mode of transport, thereby ensuring a thorough analysis.

Yes, while the carbon footprint calculator measures emissions, our eDeL-EAR dashboard subscription extends a comprehensive overview along with an emission avoidance report. Furthermore, its breakdown with shipment-level Scope 3 emissions gives a full picture of the areas of improvement for an organization looking for green logistics services.

• Visibility on transport emissions – for reporting as per the National Guidelines e.g. BRSR for India.
• Will assist the organization in achieving the emission reduction / carbon neutrality goals.
• Help disclose on the emission reduction initiatives and corresponding emissions reductions achieved.
