Step by Step with WAGO Toward Environmental Reporting

ESG reporting is mandatory for many companies. In addition to information on social and governance topics, it also focuses on environmental efforts. This requires collecting, evaluating, and documenting data on current performance and future goals in this area. Why? Because a verifiable and reliable data foundation is the most important prerequisite for a solid ESG report. WAGO supports you throughout the entire process of preparing your environmental report — step by step.

Step 1: Understand the Requirements

Be aware of your sustainability strategy and familiarize yourself with ESG standards. ESG reporting is governed by the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS).

Step 2: Collect Data

Collect all relevant data from digital meters, manual readings and other systems in your building. This includes water and energy data, greenhouse gas emissions, CO₂ equivalents, and waste volumes.

Tip: WAGO Building Cloud Services for Environmental Reporting and Energy Management make this process especially simple and efficient.

Step 3: Consolidate Data

Ensure your data is well-structured and traceable. Implementing a data management system or environmental data software can help consolidate, store, and analyze data — even across multiple properties.

Tip: WAGO Building Cloud Services combine essential management and reporting functions, supporting compliance with energy management and ESG reporting regulations.

Step 4: Analyze Data

Create custom charts and visualizations to ensure data clarity and comparability, and to quickly identify errors or anomalies. ESG reporting should include period-based evaluations and offer multiple output formats. Tip: WAGO solutions support reporting not only for individual buildings but also for distributed properties.

Step 5: Optimize Building Operations

Use custom KPIs — such as heating or energy consumption — to identify improvement opportunities, reduce error rates in building operations, and significantly increase overall efficiency.

Tip: The WAGO I/O System allows you to replace outdated control devices and configure them for fully efficient building operation.

Step 6: Create the Report

After collecting and analyzing your environmental data throughout the year and implementing improvements, it’s time to compile your ESG report. If you use a management system, you can usually generate a clear overview with just a few clicks. Submit this to your company’s ESG officer, who will combine it with social and governance data into a complete report.
