Suppliers Details
Instead of manually entering each supplier's name, address, and contact details, you can upload everything at once.
You need to provide the following information:

Specific Indirect Embedded Emissions are calculated as:
Electricity Consumed ร Electricity Emission Factor
If the value you enter doesn't match this calculation, the platform will show an error message.
- Electricity Consumed (MWh/tonne of product): This refers to the electricity consumption during the production of CBAM goods, measured in MWh per tonne of product
- Electricity Emission Factor (tCO2e/MWh): This refers to the electricity emission factor used to calculate the electricity emissions

Example:
Installation ID (Optional) | Supplier ID | Product Name (Optional) | CN Code | Electricity Source | Specific Direct Embedded Emissions (tCO2e/t) | Specific Indirect Embedded Emissions (tCO2e/t) | Electricity Consumed (MWh/tonne of product) | Electricity Factor (tCO2e/MWh) | Electricity Factor Data Source | Share of Default Values (%) | Reporting Period Start Date | Reporting Period End Date |

Request CBAM Data From Suppliers
Connect with Suppliers
Instead of manually adding suppliers or uploading their data, you can send them a connection request to automatically integrate their emissions data into your CBAM reports.
You can have both connected and non-connected suppliers within the platform.
Click Connect Supplier
Click Connect
Upon clicking Connect, an email invitation will be sent to your supplier, inviting them to access the platform for manufacturers๏ปฟ and share their data with you.
You can view a quick tutorial of the steps they need to follow here.
If your supplier already uses our tool for manufacturers๏ปฟ, they will receive the request to their existing account.
If they are new to the platform, an organization will automatically be created for them after they sign up using their email address.
A validation message will confirm that the connection request was sent successfully
You can track the connection status for each supplier. Until they accept your request, the status will be shown as "Pending".
You can also send a connection request by clicking the Connect Supplier button at the top-right of the table
Click the dropdown to select a supplier, then click Connect
Once you send the connection request, your supplier will receive an email like the one below
Once your supplier clicks the Get Started Now button, they will be redirected to the sign-up page, and an organization will be automatically created for them to calculate or share their CBAM data.
You will receive a confirmation email once your supplier accepts your connection request
When your supplier accepts your request their status will change from Pending to Connected
If your supplier rejects the request, the status will return to Connect.
If you send a connection request to a new supplier before adding their details to the platform, make sure to add their ID after they accept the request.
Use the provided ID to reference the connected supplier when uploading your Imports' data.
You can also enter additional details about the Supplier. However, if they accept the connection, these details might be overwritten by the information provided by the supplier, and you will no longer be able to edit these fields. Your assigned ID, however, will remain unchanged, and you will still be able to edit it.
