Which disclosure mandate applies to your company?
Emitpulse is built for sustainability managers and finance controllers who must file disclosure reports under a mandatory or target-linked obligation. We cover CSRD ESRS E1, the SEC Climate Rule, and GHG Protocol-based voluntary disclosure. The specific requirement shapes which data you need and how defensible it has to be.
For EU-regulated companies and EU-subsidiary reporters
The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive requires large EU companies and EU-listed subsidiaries to report under ESRS E1 for climate, covering Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions with specific data-point requirements. The hard part isn't knowing what you need to report. It's assembling the underlying data to defensible quality before the auditor arrives.
CSRD requires disclosures with reasonable assurance from the second year of reporting. That means your process must be auditable, not just complete. Emitpulse structures the ledger so the assurance trail is built in from the start.
- ESRS E1 data point mapping with specific sub-requirement coverage
- Scope 1, 2, and Scope 3 Categories 1-15 coverage
- Narrative draft generation with methodology appendix
- Limited assurance-ready audit trail from source to disclosure
- Multi-entity consolidation for EU group reporting
For US-listed companies and IPO-track businesses
The SEC Climate Disclosure Rule requires large accelerated filers to report material Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. Scope 3 disclosure is required only where material or tied to a public target, and safe harbor provisions protect good-faith estimates. The practical challenge is the same as CSRD: the data exists across finance, facilities, and supply chain systems, and nobody has assembled it for disclosure purposes.
Emitpulse structures the underlying data to match SEC materiality thresholds and produces a Scope 1 and 2 summary that can go directly into 10-K or 20-F climate disclosures. The methodology appendix documents the basis of measurement required by the SEC rules.
- Scope 1 and 2 emissions summary for SEC 10-K filing
- Materiality assessment support for Scope 3 decisions
- Scope 3 safe harbor documentation for Category coverage
- Methodology appendix required under SEC climate rules
- Limited assurance-ready audit trail for attestation prep
For voluntary disclosure and investor ESG questionnaires
Companies filing CDP questionnaires, responding to investor ESG requests, or setting SBTi targets need a defensible baseline inventory. The GHG Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard is the methodological foundation for all of these. Without it, you're filling in questionnaire boxes with figures that don't trace to a methodology.
Emitpulse builds a complete GHG Protocol inventory covering all 15 Scope 3 categories applicable to your business. The inventory is structured to feed directly into CDP questionnaire sections and SBTi baseline submissions. Your investor ESG responses stop being a one-off scramble and become a download from the ledger.
- Full GHG Protocol Corporate Standard inventory
- All 15 Scope 3 categories with applicable category flagging
- CDP questionnaire data extract aligned to C6 and C7
- SBTi baseline year inventory for target-setting
- TCFD-aligned metrics and targets section
