TEG platform adds automatic carbon data

[ June 30, 2026   //   Chris Lewis ]

The TEG carrier sourcing platform has introduced automated CO₂ emissions estimates giving per-load carbon data from the point a load is booked. The tool estimates CO₂e for each vehicle journey using the UK Government’s DESNZ Greenhouse Gas Conversion Factors 2025, the same methodology required under the Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting framework. It covers loads completed by carriers in the TEG network and loads that members source off-platform, giving operators visibility across their subcontracted operations for the first time.

On contracted lanes, shippers may already receive some emissions data from their carriers. On ad-hoc freight, where loads are sourced through a marketplace and carriers change from job to job, that data has not existed and TEG’s tool aims to close the gap.

TEG founder and chief executive, Lyall Cresswell, said: “Our member businesses can now respond to Scope 3 requests with load-level estimates built on the Government’s own methodology, not spreadsheets and guesswork. This is a first step. We intend to deepen the data over time, but the principle matters now: if you can see it, you can manage it.”

CO₂e data can be segmented by carrier, route and vehicle type, giving a more detailed view of emissions across subcontracted operations, helping address gaps in shipment-level carbon reporting.
