SAP has upgraded a software-as-a-service application that lets businesses measure their greenhouse gas emissions in a simple manner.
Its Carbon Impact OnDemand 5.0 can now be used in more than 50 countries, while its new features include the ability to obtain carbon emission and energy use data from business application software suites and building management systems.
The software-as-a-service tool also includes modelling functions which allow environmental managers to predict the impact of their plans to cut carbon output.
Peter Graf, chief sustainability officer at SAP, said the application could be highly useful to many businesses.
"Due to the uncertainty and volatility in energy prices, as well as the growing concerns of consumers, NGOs and governments about organisations' energy and carbon costs, companies face a tremendous challenge," he stated.
Earlier this month, a study conducted by SAP's Sybase was praised by IT Business Edge blogger Loraine Lawson for proving the importance of data quality to business operations.
