EmissionBase®

Asset-level CO₂ benchmark data for leasing and asset finance portfolios

EmissionBase® delivers full lifecycle emissions data, from cradle to grave, with the granularity and traceability that real reporting needs.

Full lifecycle CO₂ coverage
Model to industry-level granularity
15+ industries covered
API + XLS/CSV delivery

01

CO₂ benchmarks matched to real asset logic

Receive benchmark data at the level that fits your portfolio reality, from individual models and technical aggregations to categories and industry fallback values.

02

More than production and usage

EmissionBase® covers emissions across the asset lifecycle, including production, usage, transportation and recycling. This gives you a fuller view of asset emissions instead of a partial snapshot.

03

Methodology built for real-world reporting

Developed as part of a university study and refined in practice, the methodology pairs emissions factors with typical usage assumptions and national electricity mixes. Every output is documented, traceable and defensible in front of an auditor.

Verified CO₂ data.
Built for asset finance.

EmissionBase® turns asset data into practical, traceable emissions benchmarks for leasing and asset finance portfolios. The data is available as the CO₂ layer inside AssetGym, or as a standalone feed delivered into your own systems.

Full lifecycle methodology

EmissionBase® goes beyond operational emissions alone. It includes production, usage, transportation and recycling, giving you a broader view of asset-related emissions.

Flexible benchmark granularity

CO₂ values can be delivered at different levels depending on the data available — from model-specific benchmarks to technical aggregations, categories and industry fallback values.

Usage logic, not just emissions factors

The methodology does not only contain emissions per unit. It also includes typical usage assumptions for covered machine types, making operational calculations more realistic and more useful in practice.

Built on methodology, data and domain expertise

EmissionBase® combines proprietary data work, technical logic and human review on top of the underlying methodology. The result is a benchmark database that is continuously refined and grounded in asset finance reality.

Frequently asked questions

What is EmissionBase®?

EmissionBase® is STH's proprietary CO₂ benchmark database for leasing and asset finance portfolios. It provides asset-level benchmark data that can be used inside AssetGym or delivered as a standalone feed via API or file export.

What emissions does EmissionBase® cover?

EmissionBase® covers multiple parts of the asset lifecycle, including production, usage, transportation and recycling. This supports a broader lifecycle-based CO₂ view rather than a narrower operational-only approach.

How granular is the benchmark data?

EmissionBase® can deliver values at multiple levels depending on the information available in the portfolio — from model-level CO₂ data to technical aggregations, categories and industry fallback values.

How are operational emissions calculated?

Operational emissions are not based on emissions factors alone. The methodology also includes typical usage assumptions for covered machine types and applies national electricity mixes where relevant.

What makes the methodology different?

The methodology was developed as part of a university study and combines asset data, lifecycle logic, usage assumptions, electricity-mix differentiation and practical benchmark structures built for real asset finance portfolios.

Can EmissionBase® be used without AssetGym?

Yes. EmissionBase® can be used as the CO₂ layer inside AssetGym or delivered as a standalone data feed into your own systems via API, Excel or CSV.

How is the data delivered?

EmissionBase® is available through flexible delivery formats, including dashboards, API-ready outputs and bulk export formats such as XLS and CSV.

CO₂ data should be an asset, not a liability.

We map your asset classes and show you the benchmark coverage available — from model-level values to broader fallback structures. No commitment required.
