You are cordially invited to a webinar presented by the Indo-German Chamber of Commerce and KarbonWise, entitled "Hidden Carbon Costs: The Potential Impact of Embedded Emissions on Businesses." 

This session will examine the principal challenges associated with emissions reporting, the implications of evolving regulatory frameworks, and strategic approaches to mitigating carbon risks and identifying related opportunities.

 

As sustainability and carbon accountability become central to business operations, businesses are facing increasing pressure to decarbonise. Understanding the complexities of embedded emissions has never been more critical. Companies must navigate a rapidly evolving regulatory landscape while managing financial risks and uncovering opportunities tied to carbon reduction initiatives.

The Indo-German Chamber of Commerce in cooperation with KarbonWise invites you the webinar, “Hidden Carbon Costs: The Potential Impact of Embedded Emissions on Businesses.” The webinar will unpack key challenges in emissions reporting, regulatory shifts, and strategic approaches to managing carbon risks and opportunities.


The session will explore the challenges surrounding measuring and reporting Scope 2 and Scope 3 carbon emissions under frameworks like the EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). As carbon accounting grows in importance, industries such as steel are under increasing pressure to meet evolving sustainability standards. We will examine the topic of “Green Steel” standards in India and Germany. Lastly, the webinar will look into costs and benefits of tools such as Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) and Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) in driving the decarbonisation efforts of companies and enhancing their competitiveness in global markets.

Key Discussions:

  • Decoding Scope 2 and Scope 3 Emissions under CBAM: Understanding how indirect emissions impact your carbon footprint and why accurate reporting under CBAM remains a challenge,
  • EPD & LCA: Hidden Costs and Benefits: Exploring the real costs of sustainability reporting and how businesses can leverage these tools for competitive advantage
  • The “Green Steel” Standards Uncertainties: Navigating evolving German and Indian “Green Steel” standards for emissions disclosures,
  • Decarbonisation Risk and Opportunity Management: Assessing financial and reputational risks while unlocking opportunities for innovation and compliance.

Who Should Attend?
This webinar is designed for sustainability officers, corporate strategists, procurement leaders, regulatory professionals, and business executives looking to enhance their understanding of embedded emissions and make informed decisions on carbon accountability.
