Carbon · Water · Compliance
Carbolyt calculates corporate carbon and water footprints, tracks Turkish ETS, CBAM and TSRS obligations and produces audit-ready reports. Behind every result sit its formula, its factor and its official source.
AI-assisted · always current
Carbolyt brings a data-aware assistant, smart suggestions in every module and calculation rules tied to the official texts into one platform, backed by an expert team for your most complex processes.
A data-driven assistant that answers instantly. It sees a summary of the screen you are on; every figure comes from that summary and every citation from a verified source list.
Runs only with company consent; line data and personal data are never sent out.New regulations are built into the calculation rules as they are published; each rule is pinned with an article reference and an automated test.
Like an experienced verifier’s first look: unconfirmed lines, empty categories, uncertainty statements and base-year policy, in priority order.
Our expert team is with you through complex processes: from setup and data import to the monitoring plan and the verification file.
Calculation trail, tamper-proof audit log and verifier accounts come as standard; a positive opinion locks the inventory.
What is Carbolyt?
In most companies the corporate GHG inventory, the ETS installation report, the CBAM declaration and the TSRS disclosures are prepared in separate files by separate teams, and the same fuel ends up with three different numbers. Carbolyt takes the data once; the inventory, installation report, border declaration and sustainability report are all produced from the same record. Every line is stored with its formula, factor and official source.

How it works
Each step feeds the next; no spreadsheet is copied by hand in between.
Bring in data via the Excel template, e-invoice import and the supplier portal. Every row is previewed; faulty rows are shown before anything is written.
Factors resolve by country and period. Results are frozen gas by gas, with formula and source; updating a factor never rewrites a past report.
ISO 14064-1 report, ETS installation report, CBAM declaration, TSRS and GRI outputs all come from the same calculation.
Set targets against the base year, rank measures by cost and compare fuel-switch scenarios.
Modules
Data is entered once. Inventory, installation report, border declaration and sustainability report come from the same record, so the numbers never disagree.
Scopes 1, 2 and 3: combustion, process, fugitive gases, electricity, heat, logistics, waste, wastewater, purchased goods.
Category assessment, monitoring plan, tier checks, annual emissions report, allocation scenario.
EU default values, mark-ups, free allocation adjustment, official certificate price, 50-tonne threshold.
Scope assessment by entity type and thresholds, Scope 3 relief period, GRI 305.
Cradle-to-gate or grave; biogenic carbon kept separate, digital product passport readiness.
Blue, green and grey water; water scarcity footprint with the site’s AWARE factor.
Science-based target maths, marginal abatement cost curve, fuel-switch scenarios.
Equipment register, EKOMVET record, leak-check schedule; mass balance for waste treatment plants.
Sectors
The Turkish ETS pilot started with five sectors; CBAM covers six goods groups. The platform calculates both from the same production data.
Clinker ratio, calcination process emissions, grey and white clinker kept apart.
Benchmark by production route, precursors, mass balance.
PFC emissions from anode effects, primary and secondary production split.
N₂O from nitric acid, precursor accounting along the ammonia and urea chain.
Allocation with installation-specific benchmark and sector correction factor.
Outside the 50-tonne threshold; liable at any import volume.
Inside the platform
Screenshots from the platform, showing a sample steel pipe manufacturer’s inventory.
A three-step workflow shows where you are; the section list on the left takes you to materiality, assumptions, uncertainty, base year, report and verification for the same inventory.
The platform lists gaps in priority order from the inventory’s own data: unconfirmed lines, empty categories, lines without an uncertainty statement, materiality threshold, base-year policy. Each suggestion states its basis.
Your verifier works in the platform with their own account: reads the data, writes findings, the organisation responds. No opinion can be issued while a finding is open; a second verifier approves the opinion or returns it with reasons.
Enter lines by CN code, country of origin and net mass; the obligation is calculated with default values, mark-ups, free allocation adjustment and the official quarterly price, and exported as XML.
The cost of waiting
The rates and amounts below are taken from the texts in force; they are not estimates.
The share added to embedded emissions when the EU default value is used instead of actual production data.
IR (EU) 2026/1740 · Annex I intro (1% for fertilisers)The deduction from the CBAM obligation shrinks together with EU producers’ free allocation.
Administrative fine for an installation that misses the annual emissions report deadline (2026 amounts).
Worked example
Hot-rolled flat steel (CN 7208) of Turkish origin, using the EU default value, first quarter of 2026. The platform builds and stores this chain for every declaration line.
Once the threshold is crossed, all goods of that year are liable (Regulation (EU) 2023/956 Art. 2a/2).

The platform filters these dates by your inventory and installation category and shows yours on the dashboard.

Water footprint
Blue water is water consumed; grey water is the volume needed to dilute a pollutant to acceptable levels, set by the most critical pollutant. The water scarcity footprint uses the site-specific AWARE factor.
Who it is for
Why Carbolyt
For a one-off calculation a spreadsheet is enough. The Turkish ETS, CBAM and TSRS ask where every number came from, which version produced it and who approved it. Here is the difference, point by point.
| Topic | In a spreadsheet |  |
|---|---|---|
| Frozen calculations | Update an emission factor and the formula chain silently recalculates past years; last year’s report now shows a different number. | Each calculation stores the factor version and rule it used. New factors apply only to new runs; if you recalculate, the difference is logged as a methodology change. |
| Line-by-line audit trail | Tracing a total means following formulas cell by cell; a verifier’s question can take days. | Every line shows its formula, factor, official source table and article reference in one click: from total to line, from line to source. |
| Stops on a missing factor | An empty cell counts as zero; the total comes out short and nobody notices. | If a factor is missing the line does not return zero: it names the factor, country and period that are missing. Every assumption leaves a warning in the trail. |
| One dataset, every filing | Corporate inventory, ETS installation report and CBAM declaration live in separate files; the same natural gas ends up with three numbers. | ISO 14064-1 report, ETS monitoring plan (Annex 4) and annual report (Annex 6), CBAM XML, TSRS and GRI outputs all come from the same record, so the numbers agree. |
| Official tables, loaded and tested | CBAM default values and emission factors are copied from PDFs by hand; one wrong cell affects the whole declaration. | 10,910 CBAM default values, 2,465 benchmarks and 556 DESNZ 2026 factors loaded one-to-one from official files; 1,028 automated tests check them against hand-derived values. |
| Verification inside the platform | Files go back and forth by email; findings sit in a separate list and nobody is sure which version was verified. | Your verifier signs in with their own account: writes findings, you respond, an opinion is issued. After a positive opinion the inventory is locked at database level. |
| Who changed what, and when | In a shared file, the last save wins and changes leave no trace. | Every change goes to an audit log that cannot be edited or deleted. Consultant and verifier access is limited by role and time; two-factor sign-in is standard. |
| Supplier data in one place | Spreadsheets from suppliers arrive in different formats and are merged by hand; which value has evidence gets lost. | Suppliers get a no-login form link; precursor data arrives with evidence and the approved value flows into the CBAM line or product footprint. |
| Deadlines per installation | Monitoring plan, verified report and CBAM deadlines sit in a separate calendar and depend on who remembers. | The platform filters deadlines by installation category and inventory and shows them on the dashboard, each with its legal basis. |
Starting from spreadsheets is fine: the platform template and your own layout are both read, and rows are previewed and validated before import.

FAQ
About the demo, factors, data security and verification.
Every module is open in the demo and the account is yours alone; nobody else sees your data. After three days the account closes automatically and can no longer be signed into. No payment details are requested, so nothing is ever charged.
Combustion factors come from the 2006 IPCC Guidelines, distance and waste factors from the DESNZ 2026 set, the Turkish grid factor from the Ministry of Energy publication and CBAM values from the EU implementing regulations. Each factor is stored with its version and source document; you can add your own supplier factor with its source.
No. Every completed calculation stores the factor version and calculation rule it used. New rules apply only to new calculations; if you recalculate an inventory, the difference shows up as a methodology change.
Yes. The template you download from the platform contains the source codes and units; your own spreadsheet layout can be read too and its lines mapped. Uploads are previewed first: each row is validated, errors are shown, and only valid rows are written after you confirm.
The calculation does not return zero. The line stops and tells you which factor is missing for which country and period. Wherever an assumption is used, a warning is written to the calculation trail.
Only if you allow it. Rule-based findings are produced on the server and no data leaves it. If you switch on data sharing in Company Settings, a numerical summary of the current module is sent to the language model to draft advice; line data, personal names and document contents are not sent. Every figure in the advice must come from the summary and every citation from a verified source list; advice that fails these checks is removed.
