QAIrbon – Space-based independent measurement of industrial CO2 emissions for business in confidence
We bring a scientific, independent and certified measurement of industrial CO2 emissions. We provide data and analytics to industry subject to the carbon regulations: European Emission Trading Scheme (EU-ETS), Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD); to carbon-indexed finance, and to institutions in charge of defining and enforcing the carbon regulations. Doing so, we overcome the huge uncertainty that all stakeholders currently face, having to rely solely on declarations and lacking reliable data.
Our solution relies on a specific satellite for the measurement of carbon emissions directly from space, an intelligence platform for the generation of CO2 products, and a partnership with a leader in finance audit and a leader in industrial certification. We make use of a unique payload developed by Thales Alenia Space with the European Space Agency and CNES.
