Egencia Launches Emissions Tracking Tool

A new tool from Egencia enables the travel management company's corporate clients to track carbon emissions from trips and use that data to help reduce the carbon footprint of their travel programs and reach sustainability goals.  Announced Tuesday and available now, Egencia's Carbon Emissions Workspace is a new series of dashboards within the Egencia Analytics Studio—the data visualization platform the company launched in 2018 to help client companies glean actionable insights and savings opportunities from travel data. The workspace features air and hotel travel dashboards, with a dashboard for rail planned to launch early in 2020. The dashboards use a proprietary algorithm based on international industry standards for tracking emissions. The tool enables managers to track trends, make comparisons and apply filters to perform companywide analyses or measure the emissions effects of a single trip or traveler.
