AWS’ Customer Carbon Footprint Tool now includes Scope 3 emissions data

Today, AWS’ Customer Carbon Footprint Tool (CCFT) has been updated to include Scope 3 emissions data and Scope 1 natural gas and refrigerants, providing AWS customers more complete visibility into their cloud carbon footprint. This update expands the CCFT to cover all three industry-standard emission scopes as defined by the Greenhouse Gas Protocol.

The CCFT Scope 3 update gives AWS customers full visibility into the lifecycle carbon impact of their AWS usage, including emissions from manufacturing the servers that run their workloads, powering AWS facilities, and transporting equipment to data centers. Historical data is available back to January 2022, allowing organizations to track their progress over time and make informed decisions about their cloud strategy to meet their sustainability goals. This data is available through the CCFT dashboard and AWS Billing and Cost Management Data Exports, enabling customers to easily incorporate carbon insights into their operational workflows, sustainability planning, and reporting processes.
