Our take
Even as eco-friendly sentiment increases, the vast majority of companies aren’t measuring their emissions accurately and regularly. And, with ESGs and carbon-tracking ramping up the corporate agenda, companies are scrambling for solutions, especially in light of the coming sustainable reporting regulations.
Sweep, which targets carbon management in large enterprises at the FTSE 500 level, delivers software that enables users to "take control of their climate journey" - with a toolsuite that makes carbon data collection, security and analysis seamless and automated.
With Sweep, the burden on companies to track their impact is lessened, leaving them to focus on actively reducing their carbon footprint and contributing to global net-zero efforts. Though there are other players in the market, such as Plan A, Watershed, and Emitwise, Sweep has secured itself a leading position with smart partnerships and a deep focus on the specific tech requirements of the space.
The company has seen good funding, being one of the best-funded carbon management platforms on the market. In 2022, Sweep interestingly reported on the ineffectiveness of traditional carbon offsetting - which has for some time been up for debate - and published a carbon reduction methodology designed to "limit financial and reputational risks and add moral weight to corporate climate programmes". It is now partnering with technology companies like 3Degrees and Urbanomy to build new decarbonisation strategies for businesses.
