Use case spotlight: Intelligent emissions forecasting & scenario modeling
Manage emissions effectively through integrated forecasting and scenario modeling
Leading emissions management programs go beyond accurate quantification and granular tracking, they help organizations understand how emissions will evolve in response to operational changes, capital investments, and strategic initiatives. But without the right data and tools, it’s difficult to move beyond static reporting to model future scenarios, evaluate abatement project economics, or optimize emissions strategies at the asset level.
At Validere, we believe high-value forecasts and strategic scenarios shouldn’t be trapped in spreadsheets or siloed point solutions. They belong in a connected, intelligent platform built for the complexity of environmental decision-making.
That’s why we’ve built an all-in-one intelligence platform for the energy industry for emissions reporting, environmental compliance, forecasting, and strategic planning. By integrating asset inventories, enabling emissions quantification, production forecasts, and project management tools, we enable teams to shift from reactive tracking to proactive emissions management.
It all starts with Validere’s robust data architecture, built to reflect the complexity of energy operations. It supports detailed asset modeling, transparent and auditable emissions calculations, and full control over asset categorization.
With this foundation in place, organizations can unlock powerful capabilities: forecasting, scenario planning, MACC analysis, and investment optimization—at the facility, field, or enterprise level.
The value we deliver
With Validere's forecasting and scenario modeling capabilities, emissions management becomes strategic and forward-looking. Our customers benefit from:
- Detailed project inventory: Maintain comprehensive information on emissions-reduction projects with timelines, costs, applicable assets, and granular definitions for constituent emissions-altering actions.
- Dynamic emissions forecasting: Generate sophisticated forecasts that automatically incorporate production changes, operational modifications, and the latest inventory of planned abatement initiatives.
- Economic optimization tools: Leverage Marginal Abatement Cost Curve (MACC) analysis to identify the most cost-effective projects and optimize capital and resource allocation.
- Scenario comparison: Combine multiple projects to evaluate collective impact, compare different decarbonization pathways with integrated uncertainty modeling, and track progress towards emissions reduction or intensity targets.

How Validere powers strategic emissions management
Our platform enables comprehensive forecasting through:
- Asset-level emissions inventories: Our robust asset hierarchy and extensive calculation methodology library provide the basis for building granular historical emissions inventories to enable all forecasting activities.
- Production forecast integration: Define production forecasts independently of specific projects, then seamlessly integrate these projections with emissions reduction scenarios to understand the range of possible emissions and intensity impacts.
- Project execution management: Leverage structured frameworks for sequencing, assigning, and coordinating the execution of forecasting-related user activities, with embedded automations to minimize manual data gathering and calculation, all while maintaining full traceability via an audit trail of actions and outcomes.
- AI driven data insights: The Validere Assistant acts as an analyst for our users providing analyses and summaries of their emissions, production and forecast data, surfacing key trends and identifying potential anomalies.
- Granular project inventory: Store and parameterize emissions-reduction projects at both strategic and operational levels, decomposing complex initiatives into constituent actions that characterize overall impact for full project visibility.
- Automated forecast updates: Keep forecasts current and actionable with continuous updates based on the latest historical emissions data, production projections, and project definitions, ensuring your planning reflects real, up-to-date operational conditions.
- Advanced economic analysis: Make data-driven investment decisions with comprehensive MACC analysis that models carbon pricing scenarios, identifies cost-effective projects, and tracks cumulative cost impacts over time.
- Multi-scenario evaluation: Compare different decarbonization pathways by combining projects into scenarios to evaluate collective emissions impact, intensity improvements, and financial performance across various strategic approaches.
