Call Center / BPO Carbon Calculator

Scope 1: fuels your business burns directly — generator diesel, kitchen LPG, company vehicles. Scope 2: emissions embedded in purchased electricity. Together they're the 'operational footprint' every customer ESG questionnaire and BRSR-lite request asks for first; Scope 3 (value chain) comes later.

For Scopes 1–2, very: utility bills and fuel purchases are exact activity data, and published factors (CEA grid, IPCC fuels) are the same ones consultants use. Expect ±5% versus a paid screening study — the gaps appear only in Scope 3 territory.

Three things: answer customer/lender ESG requests with confidence; find the biggest line (usually electricity or diesel) and attack it — efficiency and rooftop solar cut both carbon and cost; and baseline this year so next year shows a trend. The trend is what buyers reward.

A kWh's footprint depends entirely on what made it: India's coal-heavy grid ≈0.716 kg/kWh, France's nuclear grid ≈0.06. The same office moves 10× in Scope 2 by geography — region-correct factors are the difference between accounting and guessing.
