CBAM Desk built-in regulatory knowledge base

Built-in regulatory data

CBAM Desk ships with a comprehensive, curated database of emission factors and benchmark values maintained by our regulatory experts. You never have to source or manually enter this data yourself.

With approximately 12,000 default emission values spanning all countries and roughly 2,000 benchmark values, you can be confident that your calculations are based on the most accurate and up-to-date reference data available.

When the European Commission publishes regulatory updates, our team reviews and integrates the changes, so your platform is always compliant without any action on your part.

  • ~12,000 default emission values across all countries
  • ~2,000 benchmark values maintained and updated
  • Automatic updates when EU regulations change
  • Country-specific emission factors for accurate calculations

CBAM Desk dashboard with analytics and forecasting

Dashboard & forecasting

Get a comprehensive overview of all your CBAM-covered imports in a single, unified dashboard. Track emissions, costs, and compliance status at a glance with intuitive charts and key performance indicators.

CBAM Desk includes advanced forecasting powered by linear regression models. By analyzing your historical import data, the platform projects future CBAM costs and emission trends, helping you budget accurately and plan ahead.

Turn raw data into actionable insights. Identify cost optimization opportunities, spot trends early, and make data-driven decisions about your supply chain and sourcing strategy.

  • Comprehensive analytics across all CBAM-covered imports
  • Advanced forecasting using linear regression models
  • Trend visualization and cost projections
  • Actionable insights for cost optimization

Supplier & plant management

Maintain a central registry of all your suppliers and their production facilities. CBAM Desk lets you organize your supply chain data in one place, making it easy to track which plants produce which goods and where they are located.

Store actual (verified) emission data per plant to replace default values in your CBAM calculations. Using actual data instead of conservative default values can significantly reduce your reported emissions and, ultimately, your CBAM costs.

Track the verification status and data quality of each supplier. Know at a glance which suppliers have provided verified data and which still rely on defaults, so you can prioritize your data collection efforts where they matter most.

  • Central registry for all suppliers and production facilities
  • Store actual (verified) emission data per plant
  • Track verification status and data quality
  • Reduce costs by using actual data vs. default values

Enterprise ready

CBAM Desk is built on a multi-tenant architecture that ensures complete data isolation between organizations. Your data is yours, securely separated and never accessible to other tenants on the platform.

Integrate seamlessly with your existing identity infrastructure. CBAM Desk supports Single Sign-On (SSO) and custom authentication providers, so your team can log in with the credentials they already use. A granular role-based permission system ensures every user sees only what they need.

For corporate groups managing multiple legal entities, CBAM Desk offers built-in subsidiary support. Each subsidiary operates independently within the parent tenant, with its own data, users, and reporting, while the parent organization retains oversight across all entities.

  • Multi-tenant architecture for full data isolation
  • SSO and custom authentication support
  • Granular role-based permission system
  • Subsidiary support for corporate groups managing multiple entities
