Beyond the operational challenge of data collection, he raises a strategic point that often goes unexamined.: building a decarbonisation roadmap on a single year of reference data is not enough. \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-add-space: auto;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: 'Aptos',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"> \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-add-space: auto;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: 'Aptos',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\">Business conditions change, energy mixes shift and the baseline year may not reflect a typical or reliable picture of emissions.

The initial hesitance many companies show toward carbon measurement, driven largely by the perception of cost without visible return, tends to change once carbon performance begins to influence access to financing and asset valuation. That shift is already visible in markets more advanced than Romania, and the direction here is the same.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-add-space: auto;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: 'Aptos',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"> \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-add-space: auto;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: 'Aptos',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\">For organisations working through CSRD requirements or building their first decarbonisation strategy, the conversation offers a grounded and direct perspective on where the gaps tend to be and what structured carbon management actually requires.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-add-space: auto;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: 'Aptos',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"> \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-add-space: auto;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: 'Aptos',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\">The full interview is worth your time. \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: 'Apple Color Emoji'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Apple Color Emoji'; color: black; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\">👇\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-add-space: auto;\">\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fconstruct-intelligence.ro\u002Frazvan-nica-ceo-buildgreen-sustenabilitatea-reala-nu-mai-e-optionala-ci-parte-din-performanta-proiectului\u002F\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: 'Aptos',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: blue; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\">Read the interview on Construct Intelligence\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>","CarbonTool","Why Carbon Data Needs a System, Not Just One Year of Reporting","\u003Cp>One year of carbon data is not enough.
