The adoption of this software has accelerated in recent years, driven by several key trends. Organizations increasingly adopt this software as part of broader climate risk management strategies. This integration helps assess and mitigate risks associated with climate change, such as regulatory changes or extreme weather events. Companies use carbon accounting data to inform strategic planning and resilience efforts, incorporating climate risk into their long-term business strategies. There is a growing trend to address Scope 3 emissions, which include indirect emissions across the value chain. This software is being adopted to track and manage these emissions, providing a more comprehensive view of an organization’s carbon footprint.
Furthermore, software solutions facilitate collaboration with suppliers and partners to gather data on Scope 3 emissions, improving accuracy and transparency. The processing of food products, including milling, cooking, and packaging, requires significant energy, often derived from fossil fuels. This results in CO₂ emissions associated with electricity and heat generation. For instance, as per Our Data, Food production accounts for over a quarter (26%) of greenhouse gas emissions. The market is seeing a rise in the adoption of this software by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). This trend is driven by the availability of more affordable and scalable solutions tailored to the needs of smaller organizations.
As the transportation industry expands, including passenger and freight transport, there is a greater need to monitor and report carbon emissions. This software is essential for tracking emissions from various types of vehicles and transportation operations, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements. According to the State Council of the People's Republic of China, China’s transportation sector maintained steady operation in the first five months of 2024. In January-May, the country’s road network facilitated approximately 25.23 billion passenger trips, up 7.4 percent year on year. The rapid growth in the construction sector leads to higher carbon emissions from construction activities, including the production and use of materials, transportation, and site operations. Carbon accounting software helps construction companies track and manage these emissions more effectively.
As per the Investment Promotion and Facilitation Agency, the UN projects India’s population to be 1.64 Bn by 2047; an estimated 51% of India’s population is likely to live in urban centers. The construction industry market in India works across 250 sub-sectors with linkages across sectors. India’s push towards developing smart cities includes focusing on sustainability and energy efficiency. Therefore, the rising transportation industry and expansion of the region's construction sector are driving the market's growth.
