Unravel Carbon has selected the Snowflake Data Cloud to integrate their emissions inventory databases and decarbonisation solutions, and help organisations become more climate conscious.
The Singapore-based startup aims to help large and medium-sized companies track and reduce their carbon emissions. Through its AI-powered carbon decarbonisation platform, it converts these companies’ accounting information into full supply chain carbon insights, and then suggests climate solutions towards net-zero emissions.
Its has customers in 25 countries, including Mercedes Benz, Millennium & Copthorne Hotels, Global Fashion Group, and the central bank of Singapore.
“As Asia accounts for 60 percent of global emissions, our goal is to help companies measure, track, reduce, and report their carbon emissions with speed and at scale. This enables them to be part of the solution for current and future generations,” said Grace Sai, Co-founder and CEO of Unravel Carbon.
Despite an estimated six years left before the consequences of climate change reach a major tipping point, Unravel Carbon found that only 10,000 out of 400 million companies worldwide are measuring their carbon footprints.
To help companies decarbonise, it needed a platform that was simple to operate and scale to meet customers’ needs. This way, companies can reduce business risk and explore new, climate-conscious growth opportunities.
Turning to Snowflake to unify their datasets enables its customers to spend less time measuring, and more time decarbonizing to meet sustainability goals.
Traditional approaches to convert everything a company has produced requires six to nine months of manual consulting work. With Snowflake’s Data Cloud, Unravel Carbon customers can report on their carbon footprint within minutes, if not seconds.
“With Snowflake’s simple-to-use platform, we can build and harness databases that identify emission hotspots quickly, while releasing less carbon than legacy solutions. We are also able to pull structured and unstructured data from various sources to drive effective decarbonisation initiatives,” said Sai.
“In the three months since we integrated Snowflake’s solutions, our emissions databases have been instrumental in improving data-driven, climate-aware decision-making. Unravel Carbon also is planning to set up the world’s largest repository for every service on Snowflake to power the low carbon economy,” she added.
