How the Klimate platform will save you time on your carbon removal reporting

Many companies investing in carbon removal want to communicate their actions clearly and credibly, but few have the time or expertise to navigate that alone. Claims need to be accurate, transparent, and aligned with evolving expectations around greenwashing and climate communication. At the same time, many early adopters want to show leadership by explaining why they have chosen high-integrity carbon removal and how it fits into their broader climate strategy.

In practice, communicating that work both internally and externally is often harder than it should be. Key data is spread across different places, project information can be difficult to track, and many teams still rely on manual spreadsheets to keep everything updated. That creates extra work, increases the risk of inconsistencies, and makes it harder not only to report credibly, but also to keep teams aligned and inform future strategy and budgets.

This is exactly where the Klimate platform comes in. It is designed to make organising and communicating carbon removal investments significantly easier. It brings project information, portfolio management, reporting tools, and communication guidance into one place and reduces manual work making it easier for companies to report on their carbon removal investments and confidently show off their good work.

Below I’ll take you through some of the platform features that support this.

Clear overview of all carbon removal assets a company owns

FEATURE: Owned Assets overview

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT: This makes it easy to track deliveries, see which credits have already been assigned to specific Impact Accounts, and understand what remains available. Because credits can be delivered across different vintages and timelines, this overview helps companies keep track of incoming deliveries and manage their portfolio over time. It also allows organisations to see when credits exceed immediate needs and plan how they might be used against future emissions.

Assigning credits towards specific strategies or emissions

FEATURE: Impact Accounts

Impact Accounts answer a simple but important question: what are these credits being used for. Companies can allocate credits towards specific strategies or emissions categories for example compensating Scope 1 and 2 emissions, addressing business travel, or supporting a broader climate contribution strategy.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT: Additional context, such as emissions periods and calculation details, can also be attached to Impact Accounts to create a clear internal record. This structure also makes it easier to align carbon removal investments with reporting frameworks and climate targets, including SBTi, CDP, and CSRD, helping organisations track progress over time.

INSPIRATION: One of our customers uses Impact Accounts to plan for credits purchased a year in advance, before its final emissions are known. Once actual emissions data is confirmed, the same structure makes it easier to adjust allocations and keep track of any surplus assets that can be saved for future years. In this case, strong progress on reduction targets has meant that some assets can be carried forward rather than used immediately.

Lock in credits for retirement with a registry

FEATURE: One-click-retirement

Once credits have been assigned to an Impact Account, companies can lock them for retirement directly in the platform. Klimate then handles the operational complexity behind the scenes, including interactions with the different registries where credits are issued. This removes a significant administrative burden while ensuring the process is handled correctly.

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT: Depending on a company’s strategy or reporting framework, credits may need to be formally retired. Retiring credits ensures they are permanently removed from circulation, strengthening the credibility of any climate claims associated with them.

Access report-ready information and due diligence data about your individual projects

FEATURE: Individual project pages

Every carbon removal project available through Klimate has its own dedicated project page. Here, users can explore key information such as methodology, location, impact metrics, and the results of Klimate’s science-led due diligence process.

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT: These pages are frequently used by teams looking for project details when preparing sustainability reports, announcements, or impact stories.

For those wanting a deeper understanding, they can explore how projects have been scored, including detailed explanations of the factors behind climate impact assessments.

Easily share your climate efforts with sample SoMe announcements, press release material and more

FEATURE: Communication Guidance

Many organisations have similar questions around what can and cannot be claimed. To support this, the Klimate platform includes communication guidance alongside real examples from companies already investing in carbon removal.

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT: Companies can explore sample social media announcements, press releases, and impact reporting examples helping teams communicate their carbon removal strategy clearly and credibly. With growing scrutiny around climate claims, these resources help companies communicate their carbon removal investments clearly while reducing the risk of greenwashing.

Display your carbon removal purchases and access them from anywhere

FEATURE: Public Registry

Klimate operates a public registry page displaying carbon removal purchases facilitated through the platform and how these are distributed across Klimate customers. Each company gets their own page in this registry.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT: Transparency is essential for building trust in the carbon removal market. These pages show purchased credits, the underlying projects, and links to external registries once credits have been delivered. Some companies choose to make this information fully public, while others share it selectively with stakeholders, for example, during an audit process. Either way, the goal is the same: to create a clear and verifiable record of carbon removal investments.

INSPIRATION: One client with global operations used the Public Registry link along with our modular reporting feature to sort and export by method to disclose the contracting and delivery status of all assets. This helped them comply with voluntary and regulatory reporting requirements in the multiple jurisdictions where they operate.

Access your automatically generated CSRD report

FEATURE: CSRD Report Feature

The Klimate platform includes a built-in CSRD report that gives companies a structured overview of the information needed to report on their carbon removal investments. Rather than gathering data manually across projects, purchases, deliveries, and retirements, teams can access readily available data in CSRD format directly within the platform. Companies can also easily export this data into their report.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT: By organising project data, credit ownership, delivery status, and retirement information in one place, the platform significantly reduces the time needed to prepare carbon removal reporting. This makes it easier for companies to integrate carbon removal investments into their CSRD and sustainability reporting while ensuring information remains consistent, transparent, and easy to verify during internal reviews or audits.

INSPIRATION: One recent client used the function to speed up their CSRD reporting. This not only reduced the administrative burden on their sustainability team, but also helped them structure and write out their actions, goals, and future plans for net zero, including where carbon removal fits in. Clear tables and data made it easier to show actual progress.

Ready to build more confidence in your reporting?

One thing we hear again and again from partner organisations is that credible reporting is not about having perfect data from day one. It is about being transparent, having a clear trail behind what you are reporting, and being able to link claims back to the underlying projects, purchases, and credits.

That is where the right tools make a real difference. With structured data, shareable tables, and a clearer record of what sits where, companies are in a much stronger position to report on carbon removal in a way that is concise, credible, and easier to stand behind.

And as Molly Baxter from Zevero put it in our recent webinar on reporting: “It’s not about perfection [in your data]. Credibility comes from transparency.”
