Mahindra Logistics Launches Digital Tool for Real-Time Carbon Emission Insights

Mahindra Logistics informed the stock exchanges that it has launched the ‘Emission Analytics Report,’ a digital platform designed to offer customers real-time visualisation of their carbon emissions and support supply chain decarbonisation.

The company stated that this user-friendly tool focuses on transportation and provides detailed Scope 3 carbon emission data, including emissions intensity, tonne-kilometres, mode-specific emissions, fuel usage, and access to emissions savings certificates, all available through a monthly subscription.

The Emission Analytics Report is part of Mahindra Logistics’ green logistics ecosystem, which includes EDeL, initially a green last-mile delivery service that has expanded to offer carbon-neutral warehousing, and a fleet of electric vehicles for delivery. The platform operates through a SaaS model and is fully automated. It is accredited by the Global Logistics Emission Council (GLEC) and ISO 14083, and integrates seamlessly with existing systems, accessible via both web and mobile devices.

This platform assists customers in meeting BRSR and other environmental regulations and supports companies aiming to enhance their sustainability efforts. It also provides detailed shipment-level Scope 3 emissions reporting for various industries, including automotive, manufacturing, consumer goods, retail, FMCG, mobility, pharmaceuticals, e-commerce, quick commerce, and freight forwarding.

Sharing his thoughts on this development, the Managing Director and CEO of Mahindra Logistics Ltd, Rampraveen Swaminathan, said, “Logistics today is about creating value for stakeholders, customers, communities, and the planet. To mark India’s 78th Independence Day, we are celebrating ‘Freedom from emissions’ by launching the ‘Emission Analytics Report’ as a part of Edel – our green logistics ecosystem, empowering our customers to decarbonise their supply chains. At Mahindra Logistics, we are committed to contributing to India’s ambitious goal of becoming Net-Zero by 2070, building a futuristic supply chain driven by a sustainable logistics network, and integrating environmental consciousness into our actions”.

Swayantani Ghosh, Chief Sustainability and CSR Officer of Mahindra Logistics Ltd, said, “In a rapidly growing economy like India, the need to lead a comprehensive effort in the fight against climate change is the need of the hour. Particularly in the context of the supply chain, scope 3 decarbonisation imposes unique challenges in the absence of the right framework, tool and data. With the introduction of shipment-level Emission Analytics Report powered with climate-focused AI, our clients can track the carbon footprint for their shipments in real-time, access emission savings analytics and evaluate decarb modelling. Right from reporting to low-carbon decision making, at every step, we as an integrated logistic player aim to partner with our clients in their transition to net zero.”
