Even a warehouse standing stillburns electricity and fuel.
A shipper has asked to calculate the energy emissions of the warehouse hub leg, too.
- Warehouse energy left out of the calculation entirely
- Heating, cooling, lighting, handling gear not reflected
- No hub emission category
- Unclear warehouse-versus-transport boundary
- Warehouse energy calculated as an ISO 14083 hub
- Heating, cooling, lighting, handling gear reflected
- Consolidated into the door-to-door as a hub category
- Clean warehouse-versus-transport boundary
Here's how it fits your industry.
Warehouse hub energy included — completing the door-to-door footprint.
The supply chain changes when shippers demand the carbon data.
Most transport emissions come from vehicles the shipper never drives. That data only turns from estimate to measurement when the shipper asks for it as a term of business.
Draw the boundary at paid freight
Only transport you paid a freight charge for is the correct boundary for a shipper's Scope 3 report. LCS draws that boundary cleanly — no gaps, no double counting.
Classify by measurement, not estimation
Instead of average factors, we use data measured directly at the vehicle, classified precisely by transport mode and leg. A single ISO 14083 method that passes verification.
Require it of subcontractors
When a shipper requires measured data as a term of contract, the whole supply chain shifts from estimate to measurement. The request is where change begins.
Don't make the ask alone.
As your partner, LCS gives you the grounds to require data from subcontractors — and gives them the tools to respond. We build the bridge to measurement between the shipper who asks and the carrier who answers.
The questions this industry asks most.
How are warehouse emissions calculated under ISO 14083?
ISO 14083 calculates the energy emissions of a hub such as a warehouse as a category separate from the transport legs. LCS aggregates warehouse energy — heating, cooling, lighting, and handling equipment — in Cloud and calculates it under the ISO 14083 hub category.
Why does warehouse energy go missing when you look only at transport?
Calculate only transport emissions and the warehouse energy of a standing site drops out entirely. Warehouses steadily consume electricity and fuel for heating, cooling, lighting, and handling equipment, so omitting these hub emissions under-reports the door-to-door footprint.
What does LCS calculate for a warehouse?
A warehouse's electricity and fuel use is aggregated from metering data in Cloud and calculated under the ISO 14083 hub category. Heating, cooling, lighting, and handling-equipment energy is captured as a separate category, cleanly bounded from the transport legs and consolidated into door-to-door reporting.
How do we get warehouse energy data?
Warehouse electricity and fuel metering data is connected to Cloud and calculated under the ISO 14083 hub category. When a shipper puts the hub leg in scope, warehouse energy is included in the door-to-door footprint.
