They are embodied in the materials, products, and services you buy.
Yet they start as direct emissions somewhere in your supply chain.

Our vision
We want to help you know all kinds of value as easily as price. This will enable a fairer economy and more prosperous world.
Organisations need to improve their impact on people and planet
Consumers are demanding more sustainability
Employees want to do good whilst going well
Government regulations are becoming tougher
Greenhouse gas emissions are only the start. In time, all organisations will need better systems to manage non-financial issues – such as biodiversity, contamination of waterways, labour conditions, fair pay, and so on.
Ultimately, the data about your impact belongs to you – it is your asset, not only the purview of rating agencies or third party analysts. Reliable impact data is a competitive advantage.
Our journey
In 2019 we began incubating a groundbreaking idea for carbon accounting – based on the simple principle that every organisation's indirect emissions are another organisation's direct emissions, and that connecting these data through supply chains makes emissions accounting easier and more accurate.
We were selected as a finalist in 2020 for a Scottish Government innovation accelerator to solve the challenge: “how can technology help manufacturing businesses decarbonise while building resilience and strengthening competitive advantage?”. In 2021 we won the competition and secured a government contract to build our Neoni® software, then invited to present our innovation at COP26 in Glasgow.
Separately, in 2021 Prof Robert Kaplan (Harvard University) and Prof Karthik Ramanna (University of Oxford) introduced an approach they later called the E-Ledger method for carbon accounting. In 2022 Dr Ulf von Kalckreuth (German Central Bank) published a research paper showing how carbon accounting can be improved by implementing the recursive calculation of statistical input-output models (publishing subsequent papers in 2024 and 2025).
Our independent efforts all outline the same methodology – this is mutually validating.
FAQs
Neoni® meets and exceeds the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol standards. Neoni® applies proven cost accounting methodologies to more accurately calculate carbon emissions across supply chains. At the heart of the methodology is a recursive calculation: adding an organisation's direct emissions to their upstream indirect emissions, and then allocating the organisation's total emissions to their individual products. This has similarities with the input-output models of macroeconomic statisticians and the familiar VAT calculation.
Yes. Neoni® supports this classification of emissions and can produce reports according to the categories of Scope 1, 2, and 3. However, for the reasons mentioned above, we prefer to simply distinguish between 'direct' and 'indirect' emissions. This is easier to understand and also more technically correct when applying a cost accounting approach.
We're working on it. Neoni® was built to prove that our novel method can reduce effort and improve the accuracy of supply chain data for carbon emissions. In time we will extend the functionality to include all types of ESG and sustainability data.
Transaction data from your purchase ledger. Your financial accounting software or enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems can produce this. We support CSV file upload to ensure compatibility with all systems.
Yes, this was our priority from day 1. Only anonymised data is transferred to your customers. This is an aggregated emissions value, which is known as an intensity ratio. This describes an amount of emissions per unit of currency or product. At no time is your granular purchase ledger data shared – it remains confidential within Neoni® just like your financial accounting and enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems. You can also revoke access at anytime to organisations that subscribe to your data feed.
Yes. Neoni® works equally well across all industries, including both private and public sectors. The Scottish Government competition we won in 2021 focused on the manufacturing sector and proved that our innovation works.
Yes, you can use Neoni® to aggregate emissions data about organisations in your investment portfolios or loan books. We are refining these features to provide analysts with greater insights specifically tailored to the financial sector.
Yes, Neoni® is fully compatible with existing standards like the GHG Protocol, CDP, TCFD, SBTi. We are currently building the features to automate these submissions where possible.
No, we are fully independent and separate. We are pleased that the institute promotes the E-Ledger method – although we believe it is more constructive to describe the E-Ledger method as the pinnacle of the GHG Protocol rather than as a competing standard. We demonstrate above that, with disciplined delineation of data, the E-Ledger and GHG Protocol/ ISO disclosure templates are fully compatible with each other.
If you are ambitious about your decarbonisation goals, then please register here for our beta testing programme. We will be happy to arrange a call with you.
Neoni® is currently only available via the cloud as a software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution. We are planning a standalone version because we know many organisations demand it.
Yes. We would like to meet organisations that have ambitious goals and want a competitive advantage – we could be your technical partner for decarbonising your supply chain.
Yes, 'neoni' is the Scottish gaelic word for 'zero'. It is inspired by our origins in Scotland and the goal of achieving net zero emissions.
