Carbon Disclosure Project

• The Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) is a globally recognized platform that enables organizations to disclose their environmental impacts, risks, and strategies related to climate change, water security, and deforestation. CDP reporting is widely used by investors, regulators, and stakeholders to assess a company's sustainability performance and resilience.
• We provide end-to-end CDP reporting services to help companies align with global environmental disclosure standards and boost their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) credibility.

What is the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP)?

• The Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) is a global nonprofit organization that operates the world’s largest environmental disclosure system for companies, cities, states, and regions. It helps organizations measure, manage, and disclose their environmental impacts related to climate change, water security, and deforestation.
• Founded in 2000 and headquartered in the UK, CDP works on behalf of institutional investors and major purchasers who demand transparency on environmental performance.
• It provides a standardized platform for disclosure that is aligned with leading frameworks like the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), and the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB)

Step 1: Applicability Assessment & Registration
The organization’s eligibility and reporting scope for CDP disclosure are evaluated. The company is registered on the CDP platform and the applicable questionnaire modules (Climate Change, Water Security, or Forests) are identified based on business activities and stakeholder requirements.

Step 2: Organizational Boundary & Data Mapping
Operational boundaries are defined to determine which facilities, subsidiaries, and activities will be included in the disclosure. Relevant environmental parameters such as energy consumption, GHG emissions, water use, and climate-related risks are mapped against the CDP questionnaire requirements.

Step 3: Environmental Data Collection
Environmental and operational data is collected from internal departments, facilities, and management systems. This includes energy usage records, emission data, water consumption, climate policies, and sustainability initiatives necessary for accurate reporting.

Step 4: Data Analysis & Emission Calculations
Collected data is reviewed and analyzed to calculate greenhouse gas emissions and other environmental indicators. The calculations are aligned with internationally recognized standards such as the GHG Protocol and CDP reporting guidelines.

Step 5: CDP Questionnaire Preparation
Detailed responses to the CDP questionnaire are prepared, including climate governance structure, risk management practices, emission reduction initiatives, environmental targets, and sustainability strategies.

Step 6: Internal Review & Management Approval
The prepared responses and supporting data are internally reviewed to ensure accuracy, completeness, and alignment with corporate disclosures. Final approval is obtained from the management or sustainability leadership.

Step 7: CDP Submission
The finalized questionnaire is submitted on the CDP portal within the reporting timeline. Proper documentation and evidence are maintained to support the disclosed information.

Step 8: Score Review & Improvement Strategy
After submission, CDP scores and feedback are analyzed. Improvement areas are identified and a strategy is developed to enhance environmental performance and achieve better CDP ratings in future disclosures.
