Cogo Vistr Carbon Measurement Tool
Fully subsidised by Hospitality New Zealand and WellingtonNZ for members, the Cogo Vistr Carbon Measurement Tool (the tool) is a time-efficient solution, providing businesses with real-time insights into their carbon footprint - empowering you to track, manage, and reduce emissions with ease.
Cogo’s underlying technology analyses financial transactions and automatically categorises spending across various industries. Each transaction is linked to an emissions factor specific to the industry, and Cogo converts that transaction into a carbon emissions estimate. Businesses can track their carbon footprint in real-time and receive insights and recommended actions tailored to their business's emissions profile and industry.
