The third full edition of emission management software CloudApps Carbon has been released by developer CloudApps, continuing on from two years of research and development into companies can deal with their impact on the environment.
The seasonally named Summer ’10 edition, features the latest regulatory requirements and factors from a number of major global energy and environment agencies, including the International Energy Agency (IEA), Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the UK’s Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA).
Additionally, Summer ‘10 supports companies looking to adopt the voluntary Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) reporting standard, which enables major corporations to calculate and disclose their greenhouse emissions. Since its launch in 2000, the CDP is used by over 2,500 organizations in 60 countries.
CloudApps Carbon’s Summer ’10 edition builds on energy reduction functionality by introducing integrated Social Media support, which CloudApps claim will help companies engage their workforce in their carbon reduction efforts. It also includes state-of-the-art employee engagement features, including employee suggestions on energy reduction ideas allowing companies to drive down energy costs across the business. The release comes just weeks after the launch of the CRC Energy Efficient Scheme, the core programme aimed at reducing the UK’s carbon emissions.
“I am very proud of our development team’s efforts in delivering the Summer ’10 release of CloudApps Carbon, but more so, by its rapid customer take-up.” said Simon Wheeldon, CEO of CloudApps. “Across a wide range of sectors, executives are gaining control of their energy conservation issues, engaging their staff in the process and starting their carbon journey. We believe that CloudApps Summer ’10 edition has everything that global enterprises need to manage their sustainability initiatives”.
Last month, Wheeldon confirmed in an interview to BusinessCloud9.com that clients from within both the private and public sectors would be revealed before the middle of July, and that the company would highlight some of the early success stories.
