RENO, Nev., April 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- As corporations prepare to disclose their greenhouse-gas emissions in response to new climate rules and regulations, they are often hindered by detailed data accessibility and a lack of understanding as to where emissions compliance begins. NZero, the real-time data and decarbonization platform, today announced the release of its Rapid Emissions Profile (REP) tool, a low-friction entry point for customers early in their decarbonization journey who are seeking a baseline understanding of their emissions and their penalty exposure without requiring access to actual utility data. And this Earth Day, they're offering it for free.

Key Points: 
  • Without needing monthly or hourly data or involving third-party utilities, REP models carbon emissions, energy costs and compliance status for businesses starting their climate risk assessment.
  • Needing only building type, size, location and annual energy consumption, REP uses AI and machine-learning to produce a benchmark efficiency profile along with a compliance status and projected annual fines.
  • Emissions compliance is emerging as complex, distributed and financially injurious, with large potential penalties across local and state jurisdictions, in addition to federal regulations.
