Corporate GHG Inventory and Decarbonization Plan

ImplementaSur supported Grupo Ransa in the design and implementation of its first corporate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventory and in the development of an initial decarbonization plan to 2040.

Service Corporate GHG Inventory and Decarbonization Plan

Year 2025-2026

Approach and Project Implementation

The project involved the development of the Group’s first corporate GHG inventory, covering logistics operations in 10 countries across Latin America, including both owned and outsourced fleet operations. Based on this assessment, an initial decarbonization plan through 2040 was developed as a first roadmap to help the organization understand its emissions profile, identify reduction opportunities, and lay the groundwork for concrete mitigation actions.

The project also included a cross-cutting capacity-building component aimed at ensuring internal ownership of the inventory and the decarbonization approach among Ransa’s regional teams.

Strategic Vision

The logistics sector is a key enabler of economic activity and an increasingly significant source of greenhouse gas emissions at both global and regional levels, driven by the expansion of international trade, digitalization, and accelerated delivery models. Advancing its decarbonization is therefore critical for the climate transition of multiple value chains.

Working with Grupo Ransa contributes to real climate impact at a regional scale, given the company’s presence across multiple countries and its relevant role in transportation and distribution flows throughout Latin America. The project required addressing complex, multi-country and multi-stakeholder processes, aligning the client’s needs with the technical and governance requirements of an international financial institution such as IFC.

The project also consolidates a long-term support model that integrates corporate inventories, decarbonization planning, and internal capacity building, laying the foundation for future stages with higher levels of climate ambition.
