Question 1

What is the Carbon Data Platform?

Accepted Answer

Carbon Data Platform (CDP) is a digital solution developed to help Public Listed Companies track, analyse, and report their carbon emissions, particularly Scope 2 emissions from electricity consumption. The platform leverages validated electricity usage data from TNB and converts it into standardized carbon emissions reports. The platform provides a centralized, reliable, and automated approach to carbon data management, replacing manual data consolidation and calculations.

Question 2

Why do I need Carbon Data Platform?

Accepted Answer

Carbon Data Platform (CDP) helps your organization to track and manage carbon emissions systematically, support ESG disclosures and sustainability reporting, and identify opportunities to reduce energy consumption and emissions. This platform simplifies what would otherwise be a manual, fragmented, and error-prone process.

Question 3

What type of reports can I generate?

Accepted Answer

You can generate Carbon emissions reports (Scope 2) yearly.

Question 4

How much historical data is available?

Accepted Answer

Typically, the platform provides up to 2 years of historical data and current year ongoing data.

Question 5

How is this service different from the existing myTNBiz platform?

Accepted Answer

Carbon Data Platform (CDP) is designed to translate 3 years of electricity consumption into carbon emissions (Scope 2). The platform provides analytics, trends, and downloadable reports aligned with Security Commission requirements, whereas myTNBiz primarily provides electricity consumption (up to 6 months) and billing.

Question 6

Can't I just use my myTNBiz electricity bill for reporting?

Accepted Answer

While myTNBiz provides consumption data, it is not consolidated across multiple accounts/premises to support carbon emissions calculations. It also lacks the historical analytics and reporting formats required for ESG disclosures. Carbon Data Platform (CDP) enhances this by converting consumption into standardized, report-ready carbon data.

Question 7

Do customers have the ability to change the emission factor if needed?

Accepted Answer

No. Carbon Data Platform refers to the emissions factor published by Suruhanjaya Tenaga to calculate the location-based emissions for customers.

Question 8

If a customer subscribes in August 2026, can they see data in 2027?

Accepted Answer

The subscription runs for 12 months from the date of payment until the last day of the subscription period. For example, customers who make payment in August 2026 will be able to access the platform until July 2027, and by the final month of the period, they would see data up to July 2027.
