Why Digital Emissions Will Shape the Future of Public Procurement
As we approach 2026, businesses bidding for public sector contracts face a new reality: Scope 3 emissions reporting is no longer optional. Whether you’re a digital
At Carbon Hogs, we build tools to help organisations identify, measure, and reduce their digital carbon footprint, starting with EcoPigs, our emissions intelligence platform.
Our tools give companies the clarity they need to reduce their digital CO₂ emissions. But we’re not stopping there.
We’re developing the next generation of emissions-tracking technology, designed to deliver the most accurate digital carbon data available. By providing deeper insight into real emissions, we’re helping CSR and ESG teams strengthen their Scope 3 reporting with evidence they can trust.
We believe the internet should work smarter, not dirtier.
We build tools that help businesses uncover and understand their carbon footprint, from digital activities such as websites and emails to infrastructure and cloud systems. Our goal is to make the hidden impact of the internet visible, measurable, and eventually, manageable.
Our flagship product, EcoPigs, is already helping organisations take their first steps towards greener digital operations. But this is just the beginning. We’re actively developing the next generation of emissions-tracking technologies to support a low-carbon digital future and to help CSR and ESG teams meet the rising demands of Scope 3 reporting.
We believe sustainability should be built into every byte.
The internet produces more CO₂ than the aviation industry — and most companies don’t even know it.
From websites and emails to cloud storage and digital campaigns, the carbon footprint of our online activity is growing fast. These emissions fall under Scope 3 — the hardest category to measure, yet increasingly under regulatory scrutiny.
Across the EU and UK, companies are being pushed to include Scope 3 emissions in their sustainability reporting, with sector-specific rules expanding by mid-2026. In the US, California’s climate disclosure laws will also require Scope 3 reporting from 2027, following Scope 1 and 2 disclosures in 2026.
Yet most businesses still have no plan in place.
Carbon Hogs is building the tools that change that.
Through platforms like EcoPigs, we help organisations identify, measure, and begin reducing their digital emissions, providing the data and insight needed to support Scope 3 reporting and ESG compliance.
Our tools help organisations take control of their digital emissions. Our platform, EcoPigs, scans websites, emails, assets, and infrastructure to reveal the precise carbon impact of your digital footprint with accurate data that goes beyond guesswork.
We translate digital behaviour into Scope 3 emissions insights you can actually use. Whether you’re preparing for regulatory disclosures or just starting your sustainability journey, we give you the clarity and confidence to reduce emissions, meet compliance expectations, and build a greener digital operation.

Many companies think they’ve done their bit for the planet by switching to green hosting. It’s a great first step but it barely scratches the surface.
The internet feels invisible, weightless — yet it carries a very real carbon footprint. Every website visit, every email sent, every video streamed contributes to global
