# Emission data analysis

## In the analysis tab, emission data can be analysed by scope, categories and locations, the balance can be viewed, and charts and tables can be exported.

After entering the consumption data, the data can be analysed via the **"Analysis"** tab in the top-level navigation. Various analysis options are available.

---

### **1. Selecting the Structural Element**

In the first step, select the desired **structural element** using the dropdown menu. To the left, two checkboxesallow you to define whether subsidiaries of the structural element should be included:

- **Include sub-structure:** Subsidiaries and sub-locations are included
- **Without sub-structure:** Only the selected structural element is considered.

You can then perform analyses by **Scopes, Categories or Locations**, or view the **emissions balance**.

### **Analysis Types in Detail**

#### **Analysis by Scope**

This view shows which of the three scopes accounts for the largest share of total emissions.

![Analysis - Scopes-2](https://helpdesk.verso.de/hs-fs/hubfs/Analysis%20-%20Scopes-2.jpg?width=670&height=333&name=Analysis%20-%20Scopes-2.jpg)

By clicking on one of the scopes, you can drill down one level to the **category view** of the selected scope.

![Analysis - Scope 3-1](https://helpdesk.verso.de/hs-fs/hubfs/Analysis%20-%20Scope%203-1.jpg?width=670&height=336&name=Analysis%20-%20Scope%203-1.jpg)

 

Clicking again allows you to analyze emissions at the **activity level** within the chosen category. This enables you to move step by step from a high-level overview down to individual emission activities.

![Analysis - Scope 3 - Electronics-1](https://helpdesk.verso.de/hs-fs/hubfs/Analysis%20-%20Scope%203%20-%20Electronics-1.jpg?width=670&height=340&name=Analysis%20-%20Scope%203%20-%20Electronics-1.jpg)

 

#### **Analysis by Category**

This view shows which categories generate the highest emissions within each scope. By clicking on one of the bars, you can directly access the **activity level** of the respective category. This allows you to identify emission drivers in a targeted manner.

![Tab Categories-1](https://helpdesk.verso.de/hs-fs/hubfs/Tab%20Categories-1.jpg?width=670&height=439&name=Tab%20Categories-1.jpg)

#### **Analysis by Location**

In this view, you can see which location generates the highest emissions.

**Note:** In this view, the option to include or exclude sub-structures is not available. **All subsidiaries and locations are always included** by default.

![Tab Locations-1](https://helpdesk.verso.de/hs-fs/hubfs/Tab%20Locations-1.jpg?width=670&height=261&name=Tab%20Locations-1.jpg)

### **2. Exporting Data and Charts**

The following export functions are available in the **Scopes**, **Categories**, and **Locations** tabs:

- Using the **Download button** in the upper right corner, the respective chart can be **downloaded as an image file**.
- Using the **Copy button**, the **data behind the charts can be copied** to the clipboard and then pasted, for example, intoExcel.

### **3. Emissions Balance**

In the "Balance" tab, the company's emissions balance is displayed. Emissions are shown **by category** and then **aggregated into the respective scopes**. For **Scope 2 emissions and total emissions**, both [market-based and location-based emissions](https://helpdesk.verso.de/en/climate-hub/scope-2-emissions-in-the-climate-hub?hsLang=en) are calculated. The approach **highlighted in bold** - here market-based - corresponds to the approach selected by the company.

![Balance-1](https://helpdesk.verso.de/hs-fs/hubfs/Balance-1.jpg?width=670&height=441&name=Balance-1.jpg)

Using the **"Hide excluded categories"** checkbox, categories that were deactivated in the category selection can be hidden. 

![Screenshot 2026-02-13 at 14.35.47](https://helpdesk.verso.de/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-02-13%20at%2014.35.47.png?width=461&height=215&name=Screenshot%202026-02-13%20at%2014.35.47.png)

**Note:** If consumption data has already been entered for an excluded category, hiding the category does **not** change the total emissions balance. As a result, the sum of the visible individual values **may not match the overall total**.

Additionally, outside of the balance table, the **share of biogenic emissions** and a **breakdown of the included greenhouse gases**, including their respective shares, is displayed.  

![Screenshot 2026-02-13 at 14.36.16](https://helpdesk.verso.de/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-02-13%20at%2014.36.16.png?width=461&height=278&name=Screenshot%202026-02-13%20at%2014.36.16.png)

All three tables can be **copied to the clipboard using the Copy button** and then pasted, for example, into Excel.
