GermanyIn Germany the ask arrives in more than one way: a customer or parent company wants your emissions and policies, your own entity may fall under CSRD and ESRS reporting, or you want a first carbon number to work from. We help you handle whichever one you are facing, without having to become a sustainability expert.
CSRD and ESRS
Value-chain data requests
Direct reporting scope
A buyer, a parent company, or a platform like CDP or EcoVadis wants your emissions, policies, or targets. Send us the wording and we prepare an answer you can stand behind.
See request support for A customer or group asked you for dataWhether CSRD and ESRS reach your entity or you just want a repeatable way to report each year, we build the numbers, the report, and the method behind them. We check what applies to you before anyone treats a deadline as settled.

Open the Germany calculator for You want your own numbers firstSee GHG calculations for You want your own numbers firstGerman companies meet CSRD and ESRS from two sides. Some report directly; many more get pulled in when a customer or parent company that reports asks them for data. Who is in scope and when changed in 2026, so it is worth checking what applies to your entity before treating any deadline as settled.
EU sustainability reporting requirements shape the data customers and groups ask German companies to provide, especially around emissions, value-chain impacts, policies, and targets.
Directive (EU) 2026/470 amended corporate sustainability reporting and due-diligence requirements, including changes to scope and timing. Check entity scope before making legal claims.
German suppliers can receive Scope 1, 2, and 3 data requests from CSRD-covered customers even when they are not direct reporters.
In Germany, requests most often arrive through CDP and EcoVadis, Apple, HP, and Dell supplier requests, and the Schneider Electric Zero Carbon Project. Keslio is independent and not affiliated with any of the companies named here.
CDP and EcoVadis
We organize the emissions numbers, policies, targets, labor, ethics, procurement, and evidence files these platforms ask for.
Apple, HP, and Dell
We help with clean-energy, GHG, environmental, energy, and supplier evidence requests common in electronics and technology value chains.
Schneider Electric
We help suppliers prepare operational footprints, reduction plans, and decarbonization evidence where the request calls for them.
An industrial supplier may need electricity, fuels, and product inputs, while a logistics company may need freight, warehousing, and customer allocation data. Where you start depends on your sector.
Sector
Industrial, project, and infrastructure teams often need emissions, energy, environmental, and lender evidence.
Sector
Freight, warehousing, subcontractor, and customer allocation data can be central to buyer and Scope 3 requests.
Sector
Technology suppliers often need enterprise customer evidence, GHG data, cloud assumptions, and platform responses.
Sector
Supplier teams need one response file that connects emissions, policies, evidence, and who refreshes it each year.
No. Direct scope depends on entity facts and EU and national implementation. Many suppliers still receive value-chain data requests from customers that are in scope.
They usually need electricity and fuel records, entity boundaries, procurement categories, transport data, policies, targets, and the customer wording that references CSRD, ESRS, CDP, or EcoVadis.
Yes. Alongside one-off answers, we help German companies set a strategy, build a reporting process they can repeat each year, and run it as a fractional part of your team, so the next request is routine.
If a deadline or portal wording is already in front of you, send us the request. If you just want a first number, start with the Germany calculator.
Share the request, the deadline, or the question. We'll suggest the right first step.
