Security and ESG compliance for the energy sector

Energy is critical national infrastructure, and now under the spotlight for both cyber resilience and climate disclosure.

ESG & climate reporting

AASB S2 climate disclosures, without the spreadsheet marathon

Mandatory climate reporting is phasing in for large entities from FY2025. ORCA Opti connects to your data, keeps your disclosures current and tells you when you are on or off track.

The result: a dramatic reduction in the time it takes to create and manage AASB S2 climate disclosures, with evidence ready for assurance.

Connect your data sources

ORCA Opti pulls from your operational, energy and emissions data, so reporting is built on live data, not manual collection.

Always-current reporting

Your climate disclosures update as the underlying data changes, mapped to the AASB S2 requirements.

Alerts on good and bad

Know when you are tracking to target or drifting off course, well before a reporting deadline.

Scope 1, 2 and 3

Emissions captured and evidenced across all three scopes, with Scope 3 supported as it phases in.
