Securities Commission Malaysia building at Kuala Lumpur
KUALA LUMPUR: Capital Markets Malaysia (CMM), an affiliate of the Securities Commission Malaysia (SC), today launched the SEDG Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions calculator to help small and medium enterprises (SMEs) measure and report their emissions.
CMM said in a statement that the tool is designed to help Malaysian companies measure and report their scope 1 and scope 2 emissions based on the globally recognised GHG protocol.
SC executive chairman Datuk Mohammad Faiz Azmi said accurate emissions measurement was increasingly critical for Malaysian SMEs, particularly those operating in global supply chains, as customers demand greater disclosure.
"The SEDG GHG emissions calculator simplifies a complex process, making emissions reporting accessible even to first-time users.
"Beyond reporting, it also enables companies to pinpoint key emission sources across operations, allowing them to make informed decisions and move towards meaningful climate action,” he said.
He added that the calculator complements the SC’s efforts to promote consistent and credible sustainability disclosures and supports the adoption of the National Sustainability Reporting Framework.
Meanwhile, CMM general manager Navina Balasingam said the agency conducted a series of user acceptance tests across various supply chain sectors to ensure the tool met SMEs’ needs and expectations.
She said the calculator is available free of charge in three languages - English, Bahasa Melayu and Simplified Mandarin - to ensure broad accessibility. - Bernama
