VertZéro – A ‘Make-in-Vietnam’ solution certified by TÜV Rheinland Germany for internationally standardized carbon footprints calculation method
Recently, VertZéro, the carbon accounting software developed by FPT Corporation, was awarded the “Certified Calculation Method for Corporate Carbon Footprints” certification by TÜV Rheinland Germany. This marks the first Make in Vietnam technology solution to receive such recognition, underscoring its capability to calculate corporate carbon footprints (CCF) in line with international standards and positioning it alongside leading technological products from Germany, the United States, and other advanced economies.
The “Certified Calculation Method for Corporate Carbon Footprints” certification was assessed and issued by TÜV Rheinland Energy & Environment GmbH, a leading German technical inspection organization with more than 150 years of experience. Renowned for its complete independence, TÜV Rheinland guarantees absolute objectivity in its evaluation process. Its rigorous assessment procedures are not only highly respected across Europe but also hold legal validity and global recognition.
The “Certified Calculation Method for Corporate Carbon Footprints” is regarded as one of the most advanced and stringent benchmarks in the field of greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory worldwide. To achieve this certification, technology solutions must pass a comprehensive set of criteria, including: adherence to international standards such as the GHG Protocol; transparency and traceability of data sources; consistency and completeness in defining organizational boundaries and emission sources; precise calculations that cover all corporate emission scopes; and eligibility for independent verification and third-party auditing. Additionally, systems must ensure user-friendliness, flexibility to adapt to diverse business needs, integration of error-control mechanisms, and compliance with quality assurance standards.
VertZéro – FPT’s pioneering solution certified by TÜV Rheinland Germany for internationally standardized carbon footprints calculation method
After more than a year of adhering to TÜV Rheinland’s rigorous assessment process, the VertZéro team worked closely with German experts to secure the “Certified Calculation Method for Corporate Carbon Footprints” certification. This achievement demonstrates the quality and reliability of a Make in Vietnam solution, placing VertZéro on par with leading international green technology platforms such as Plan A (Germany), osapiens (Germany), CarbonSifr (Middle East), and SINAI (USA).
Developed to support organizations and enterprises in measuring and managing emissions across their entire supply chain, the VertZéro carbon accounting software enables businesses to optimize production processes, conserve energy and resources, minimize environmental impact, and contribute to the global fight against climate change.
