October 30, 2009—Business software giant CA has extended its package of ecoSoftware applications with the unveiling of new tools designed to help firms better manage, measure and report on its environmental and carbon emission reduction initiatives.
The company formally launched CA ecoGovernance 1.5, a software suite designed to help executives track the performance of environmental initiatives and share the results across the business. Also launched was an ecoMeter toolset that allows firms to constantly monitor power use across their data centers and other facilities.
The launch comes just days after CA announced that its ecoGovernance suite had been accredited by the investor-backed NGO the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), as providing carbon reporting capabilities in line with group’s standards.
The CDP requests carbon data from the world’s largest firms and is fast emerging as a main source of corporate emissions data in the world with around 2,500 companies reporting to the organization each year.
