CO₂ per component — automated

The data foundation for
 operational decarbonization.

ClimateGrid provides the technical blueprints for operational decarbonization. We connect machines, facilities, and existing systems into a reliable data foundation for automated carbon footprints. With our Climate Impact Manager, we sold part of our software solution to the German sustainability unicorn osapiens. Today, we deliberately start one step earlier: directly at the machine — where every component leaves its real CO₂ footprint.

Why we start earlier today

Transferring part of our software solution to osapiens was not the finish line for us, but an important milestone.

With the Climate Impact Manager, we developed a technological solution for greater transparency in the fragmented carbon offset market. Over time, it became clear that the real challenge in ESG and carbon management arises even earlier — with missing data availability and disconnected operational data. That's exactly why ClimateGrid focuses today on: capturing, connecting, and intelligently structuring relevant data from machines, facilities, and existing systems.

Press Release

osapiens strengthens its platform for the carbon credit market

  • Integration of the ClimateGrid Impact Manager into the osapiens HUB
  • Specialized solution for evaluating and documenting carbon credits
  • Companies communicate carbon offset strategies credibly

From Data Chaos to Decision Foundation

We don't sell impact first. We first create the operational data foundation on which ESG, decarbonization, and effective implementation can become reliable.

1. Asset Integration

Plug & Play Asset Integration

We connect your existing hardware in minutes. The CarbonTrace Edge Gateway simply clips onto the DIN rail and translates machine signals (OPC UA, MQTT, Modbus) into a scalable carbon live feed.

  • Hardware-agnostic via edge gateways
  • Standard connectivity (OPC UA / MQTT)
  • Encrypted edge-to-cloud telemetry
Advantage

Machine-accurate data as the foundation for reliable decarbonization.

2. Automated Calculation

From Power Consumption to CO₂ per Part

We take the total energy consumption of the machine and automatically allocate it to the manufactured parts. The result: a real Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) — without Excel spreadsheets.

  • Linking energy and process data
  • Automated CO₂ allocation per component
  • Reliable foundation for ESG reporting

The simplest path to a CO₂ footprint per workpiece.

3. Blueprint Scaling

Solutions as Technical Blueprints

We don't build isolated projects — we build scalable technical blueprints for industrial standard processes. Once validated, the modules can be transferred to additional assets.

  • Standardized integration blueprints
  • Transferable to similar machine parks
  • Documented IP instead of one-off delivery

Scalable tech modules instead of endless project work.

Stop estimating. Measure the actual CO₂ value per component.

Automatically from machine data — no Excel, no extrapolation. The result: an auditable Product Carbon Footprint for every manufactured component.

Blueprint #01: Metal Processing

Laser Cutting & PCF Automation

Fully automated allocation of the cradle-to-gate footprint directly at part level. We solve the complexity of energy distribution across batch programs (runs).

Run-Level Analytics

Real-time power consumption via Siemens PAC, precisely bounded per laser program (start/stop signal).

Automatic Allocation

Distribution of total energy consumption to individual parts based on area, process time, and material density.

Audit-Ready Reporting

Result: A CO₂ balance for every manufactured part (cradle-to-gate).
