As major emitters of greenhouse gases (GHGs), companies play a crucial role in the decarbonization process. Achieving this goal requires a series of steps, including measuring and recording the corporate carbon footprint to enable effective tracking.

In Spain, registration with MITECO offers multiple benefits. To explore the corporate commitment to sustainability, it’s essential to first understand the terms defining it. Next, we’ll delve into MITECO and the advantages it provides through carbon footprint registration.

Why measure your Carbon Footprint with MITECO?

The Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge (MITECO) is responsible for Spain’s national policies on climate change. Its scope includes water management, ecosystem and biodiversity protection, coastal management, and more.

For over a decade, MITECO has maintained a voluntary registry that facilitates the measurement, reduction, and offsetting of companies’ carbon footprints. This registry provides resources specifically designed to absorb CO₂ released into the atmosphere.

The importance of measuring your carbon footprint with MITECO lies in its comprehensive plans for effective reduction and tracking the progress of implemented strategies.

When companies register, MITECO issues a seal certifying their commitment to the environment, reflecting the numerous benefits companies gain by joining the voluntary registry.

Benefits of measuring Carbon Footprint with MITECO for your company

The benefits of measuring your carbon footprint with MITECO extend beyond sustainability:

Benefits of voluntary commitment

The voluntary registry demonstrates a genuine commitment to the positive changes our planet needs. MITECO provides a visible seal that reflects this environmental commitment to clients and stakeholders.

Customer loyalty and acquisition

MITECO’s seal helps retain customers and suppliers who are also working to reduce their carbon footprint. It also attracts new clients interested in sustainable products or services.

Legal compliance and access to opportunities

The voluntary registry ensures that a company operates in compliance with current regulations, benefiting all stakeholders. Staying updated with Spanish laws facilitates participation in public projects and contracts.

Accessibility and efficiency

The registration process is quick and straightforward and can be completed online. It is open to companies, organizations, freelancers, and foundations, whether governmental or non-governmental, as long as they conduct economic activities in Spain that generate CO₂ emissions.

How to register your company’s Carbon Footprint with MITECO

Registering your carbon footprint with MITECO involves a few simple steps available on their website:

  1. Visit the official website of the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge (MITECO).
  2. Select the "Environment" tab from the main menu.
  3. Within "Environment," choose the "Climate Change" topic.
  4. Look for the "Carbon Footprint" section to access registration options.
  5. Under the "Registration" section, you’ll find three options: registration requirements, a help guide for documentation, and the registration application form.
  6. Review the requirements and the help guide before completing the application form.
  7. Once the application is submitted, wait for MITECO’s approval to begin measuring your carbon footprint and advancing towards corporate sustainability.
