Scalefocus Wins Gold Stevie® for Carbon Accounting and ESG Technology Solution

SOFIA, Bulgaria, Aug. 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- EU engineering leader Scalefocus has won a Gold Stevie® Award for Carbon Accounting / ESG Technology Solution in The 2026 International Business Awards®, the 23rd annual edition of the program. More than 3,800 nominations from organizations in 78 nations were submitted this year.

The Recognition Reflects a Focused Approach to Emissions Data Integration

Scalefocus won the award for Scalefocus CarbonOps, an AI-enhanced carbon intelligence platform. CarbonOps addresses one of the most persistent obstacles in enterprise sustainability reporting: emissions data that already exists inside the organization but sits scattered across SCADA and IoT platforms, ERP systems, utility invoices, and spreadsheets.

Suppliers report in euros and tonnes of input, while auditors want energy consumption, material flows, and emission factors at the activity level. Every new regulation triggers another collection cycle for largely the same underlying data, formatted differently each time.

Scalefocus CarbonOps connects directly to operational and financial systems, calculates emissions across Scope 1, 2, and 3 from a single data entry, and outputs audit-ready reports for CSRD, EU ETS MRV, the Methane Regulation, CDP, and ISSB simultaneously. Adding a new framework becomes a configuration exercise rather than a data-collection project.

"Every company we work with already has its emissions data. What it does not have is a way to reach that data without starting over for each new framework," said Dafar Shaban, Senior Manager, Energy & Utilities at Scalefocus. " Seeing an independent jury recognize the work we put into the data layer tells us the market is starting to look at this the same way."

What the Platform Delivers in Practice

Four design decisions carry the platform. AI-powered ingestion parses invoices, sensor feeds, and procurement records into a single data model, then flags statistical outliers, duplicate entries, and unit mismatches before activity data reaches the calculation engine. A what-if simulation engine models the CO2 impact of planned investments, from fleet electrification to renewable PPA switching, before capital is committed. Every activity record links to a source document through an evidence hash, and reporting periods lock automatically once closed, so the audit trail forms during normal operation. The platform supports sovereign and private cloud deployment, so confidential business data stays inside the organization's perimeter.
