We’ve rebuilt from scratch how Dcycle calculates emissions associated with business travel. Results are now more precise, and you can see with full traceability how each number is reached. On top of that, as a new feature, we now include the calculation of hotel stays, which we didn’t cover before.

What improves with the new methodology

  • Business travel (Scope 3): we apply factors with all the decimals published by official sources, and you can choose between DEFRA and Ecoinvent for the emissions calculation.
  • Hotel stays (Scope 3): new. We now also calculate the emissions from hotel overnight stays associated with your trips.

What this means for you

  • Everything you upload from now on is automatically calculated with the new methodology.
  • You’ll be able to see the detailed calculation of the impact of your business travel and hotel stays. ➡️ We recommend recalculating even though the numbers may change slightly: you’ll gain flexibility to choose databases, results ready for audits, and full traceability of the calculation.

➡️ You can find out how to do it in this guide.
