CSV Emissions Import

Upload a file. Get a calculation ledger, a dashboard, and a draft compliance report — in under two hours. No IT project, no cloud connector setup required.

The fastest path from spreadsheet to audit-ready disclosure is a CSV upload. OffGridFlow accepts utility bills, fleet fuel records, electricity consumption, and generic activity data in a simple format. The calculation engine does the factor lookup, applies the right method, and produces an immutable ledger entry per row.

What happens after upload

  1. Each row becomes an activity record
  2. Factor lookup selects the right EPA/IEA/DEFRA/IPCC factor by region and period
  3. Calculation runs, produces an immutable ledger entry with formula
  4. Dashboard updates with scope totals
  5. Anomaly detection flags outliers, duplicates, or unexpected jumps
  6. Draft compliance report generated on demand

Frequently Asked Questions

What columns does the CSV need?

At minimum: meter_id, location, period_start, period_end, and quantity (kWh, liters, m3, etc.). Optional columns for scope, category, supplier id, and notes improve accuracy. A template is available from the in-app help widget.

How large can the file be?

Up to 50 MB per upload. For larger files, split by reporting period. Idempotent ingestion means re-uploading the same rows does not create duplicates — the dedupe keys are meter_id + period.

What happens if a row has bad data?

Validation errors are returned row-by-row with specific reasons (missing field, unrecognized unit, unparseable date). No partial imports — either the whole batch passes or the whole batch is rejected so you never wonder which rows made it.

Do I need to know what emission factor applies?

No. OffGridFlow selects the factor based on location, period, and category. You can see the selected factor in the calculation ledger and override if needed.

How long before I see a first report?

Minutes. Upload → calculation → dashboard view typically under 10 minutes. Generating a framework-specific draft (CSRD, SEC, SB 253) takes another 30 seconds to a few minutes depending on data volume.

Ready to see it with your data?
