Welcome to SPARC, your Supplier Partnership for Accelerating Climate Action

CO2 AI’s Supplier Partnership for Accelerating Climate
Action (SPARC) supports the Chemicals industry to achieve effective product-level decarbonation across diverse portfolios and complex product formulas.

Who's the program for?

  • CPG brands, to engage their Scope 3 vendors at scale, across complex portfolios and extended supply chains. 
  • Chemicals brands, to deliver fast on clients' demands for more resilient, greener components.
  • Industry forward-thinkers, to enable green premiums, carbon pricing, and mass-balancing befor competition does.

Decarb under pressure

While the Chemicals industry accounts for 7-8% of total carbon emissions, the manufacturing process only accounts for 30% of those emissions. It means supporting specialty component providers in their own decarbonation journey is a must-have.

But it's a challenge, when mounting competitive pressure on price and layers of regional regulatory frameworks combine with sluggish demand and overcapacity.

Scope 3, made easy

The SPARC program is built on the premise that Scope 3 reduction challenges can be solved by the combination of empowering technology and peer-to-peer expertise.

CO2 AI makes supplier engagement easy, where it used to be impossible. AI-assisted automation empowers compliant Product Carbon Footprinting at scale, at low cost, and at low effort. So that the industry can focus on benefiting from the business opportunities of decarbonation.

“Sustainability is poised to be an important driver of capital investment in the chemical industry’s next upcycle, as demand for chemical building blocks is expected to double over the next 30 years. [...]. Companies that align their portfolios and innovation strategies with these shifts may be more competitively positioned in the future.”

Your fast-track to Scope 3 decarbonation

Scope 3 emissions represent the majority of the carbon footprint of the chemical industry. Yet tracking product- level data across complex supply chains with thousands of raw materials remains nearly impossible. Traditional Product Carbon Footprinting or Life Cycle Assessments are not onlycostly and take time, but also lack coherent methodologies.

Why Chemical Companies Ask About AI-Powered Carbon Footprinting

Can artificial intelligence really understand the complexity of chemical processes? Will it accurately handle specialized materials like catalysts, intermediates, and proprietary formulations? Let's sort it out!

Why your carbon data determines your contracts

CPG brands with net-zero commitments cannot achieve their targets without supplier engagement, making carbon data a business-critical requirement rather than a nice-to-have sustainability metric.
