How OffGridFlow Works

From raw utility data to audit-ready compliance report in under 2 hours. No consultants. No six-figure invoices.

The 5-Step Workflow

1

Ingest Emissions Data

Upload a CSV of utility bills, energy consumption, or fleet fuel — or connect cloud sources (AWS, Azure, GCP, SAP) for automated ingestion.

Supported formats: CSV, JSON, Excel. Cloud connectors pull data on schedule with retry and duplicate detection.

2

Calculate Scopes 1, 2 & 3

The engine applies 184 emission factors from EPA eGRID, IEA, UK DEFRA, and IPCC to your activity data. Every calculation is recorded in an immutable ledger.

Scope 2: location-based and market-based methods (GHG Protocol). Scope 3: all 15 GHG Protocol categories with spend-based and activity-based factors.

3

Validate Data Quality

Anomaly detection flags outliers (z-score > 3), duplicate entries, missing time periods, and sudden changes (> 50% month-over-month).

Each anomaly shows expected vs. actual values, deviation %, and one-click resolve or dismiss.

4

Generate Compliance Reports

Select your framework — CSRD/ESRS E1, SEC Climate, California SB 253, CBAM, or IFRS S2 — and generate an audit-ready report with export to PDF or XBRL.

Reports include scope totals, factor sources, methodology notes, and reconciliation checksums.

5

Review, Approve & Lock

Submit reports through an approval workflow: preparer, reviewer, approver. Lock emission factors to the reporting period via factor snapshots for reproducibility.

Every approval action is recorded with timestamp, actor, and notes. Locked calculations cannot be modified.

Supported Frameworks

OffGridFlow generates reports for five major disclosure regimes.

CSRD / ESRS E1

EU

Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive — mandatory for EU companies and large non-EU companies operating in the EU.

SEC Climate Disclosure

US

SEC climate-related disclosure rules for US public companies — Scope 1, 2, and material Scope 3.

California SB 253

CA

Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act — Scope 1, 2, 3 reporting for companies doing business in California with > $1B revenue.

EU CBAM

EU

Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism — embedded emissions reporting for imports of cement, steel, aluminum, fertilizer, electricity, hydrogen.

IFRS S2

Global

International Sustainability Standards Board — climate-related disclosures aligned with TCFD for global capital markets.

Emission Factor Sources

184 verified emission factors with full provenance metadata.

What the Platform Includes

Scope 1, 2 & 3 Calculators

Activity-based, spend-based, and supplier-specific calculation methods per GHG Protocol.

Immutable Calculation Ledger

Every calculation recorded with formula, factor source, timestamp, and user. Locked on approval.

Factor Version Locking

Freeze emission factors to your reporting period so auditors can reproduce any prior calculation.

Data Quality Engine

Anomaly detection for outliers, duplicates, missing periods, and sudden changes.

Approval Workflow

Draft, submit, review, approve, reject — with full actor attribution and notes at each stage.

Alert Action System

Every data quality issue gets assign, comment, resolve, escalate, and dismiss actions.

PDF & XBRL Export

Compliance reports export to PDF for stakeholders and XBRL for regulatory submission.

Cloud Connectors

Automated data ingestion from AWS, Azure, GCP, SAP, and utility providers.

Trust & Security

GHG Protocol methodology documented

Scope 1, 2 (location + market-based), and all 15 Scope 3 categories follow the methods documented in our public methodology library.

SOC 2 Type I In Progress
