Greenhouse Gas Emission Trading 

The calculation model is new and the experience of it is still rather limited, but it has been initially tested by approx 98% of Stora Enso's pulp-, paper- and board producing units in Europe during the last year. It is a rough tool that is estimated to achieve up to 80 % certainty with the information that already exists at the production sites. To achieve a higher level of certainty the model has to be adapted to more site specific circumstances. The time and cost for that has however not yet been estimated.

Business value 
The most evident business value for Stora Enso of this Excel based calculation model is the possibility to at least make rough prognoses of future Carbon dioxide emission (allowances) costs. It enables in a cost-efficient way to plan the future production and fuel mix. The calculation model can in that sense also serve as a basis for a dialogue between the Emitter and its Customers.
