Basic Workflow

In C.Scale, the basic workflow is:

  1. Create a Project

  2. Set a Baseline

  3. Reduce Emissions

  4. Compare Scenarios

  5. Create a Portfolio [Organization feature]

  6. Compare Projects within Portfolio [Organization feature]

Important definitions

  • A Project includes a baseline and one or more decarbonization scenarios.

  • A Baseline is a scenario for a project where no attempts have been made to reduce carbon emissions. To define a baseline, C.Scale makes a set of "business as usual" assumptions based on user inputs. When C.Scale's "business as usual" assumptions are not appropriate, they can be refined.

  • A Scenario is a set of strategies to lower a project's carbon emissions. Scenarios are constructed individually and compared against one another in the Compare Scenarios tab.

  • A Portfolio includes all active projects in your organization, allowing for an "apples to apples" comparison across the same scope categories and LCA stages.

The C.Scale data model

The C.Scale app is powered by the C.Scale data model.
