A comprehensive web application for calculating carbon footprints, helping organizations track and reduce their environmental impact.
GreenNext is a sustainability reporting and carbon accounting software platform that helps organizations track and reduce their environmental and social impact. The web application calculates carbon footprints based on user's travel history and other activities, providing multiple options and mathematical formulas to calculate costs and equivalent tree counts.
The tool is designed to help Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and large organizations calculate carbon emissions under scopes 1, 2, and 3 in minutes, create baselines, and visualize performance via interactive dashboards.
GreenNext USA was looking for a comprehensive tool to help organizations:
We developed an automated, easy-to-manage, and cost-effective solution with the following key features:
A user-friendly application that helps businesses of all sizes calculate their carbon emissions quickly and accurately, using industry-standard methodologies and conversion factors.
The system calculates carbon emissions under scopes 1, 2, and 3 in minutes, providing a complete picture of an organization's carbon footprint across direct and indirect emission sources.
Interactive dashboards that allow users to create baselines, visualize performance metrics, and track progress over time through intuitive charts and graphs.
Tools to help organizations create and track Net Zero Target Plans, comparing carbon emissions against baselines and monitoring how carbon reduction targets perform against long-term goals.
A specialized module that calculates carbon emissions for single trips or multiple business travel activities, helping organizations understand and offset the environmental impact of their travel policies.
Seamless payment processing through Stripe Payment Gateway, allowing organizations to easily contribute to carbon offset programs and sustainability initiatives.
A powerful admin interface built with Active Admin, providing organization administrators with complete control over their sustainability reporting and carbon accounting processes.
GreenNext was built as a robust monolithic application using the following technology stack:
The application follows a monolithic architecture, which was ideal for this project as it allowed for faster development cycles and simplified deployment. Version control was managed through GitHub SVN, ensuring collaborative development and code quality.
The system was deployed on Heroku, providing a scalable and reliable hosting environment that could grow with the user base while minimizing operational overhead.
