Climate regulation is no longer on the horizon, it’s here. Coral helps your business stay compliant with key frameworks like CSRD, GRI, and SECR by simplifying emissions reporting and ESG data management.

Regulations

GRI & GHG protocol (Global Standards)

CSRD – Corporate sustainability reporting directive (EU)

UAE Federal cimate reporting law (2025)

SECR – Streamlined energy and carbon reporting (UK)

GRI & GHG Protocol

  • Global frameworks underpinning most ESG disclosures
  • GRI: Broader ESG metrics
  • GHG Protocol: Standard for calculating carbon emissions across Scope 1, 2, and 3

Coral’s Role: Built to align natively with both frameworks — data traceability, audit support, full scope coverage

CSRD – Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (EU)

  • Mandatory ESG reporting for 50,000+ companies operating in Europe
  • Enforces double materiality: impact on and by the business
  • Requires granular Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions data
  • Effective: January 2025 (reporting begins for FY 2024 for large entities)

Coral’s Role: Automates CSRD-aligned reports, complete with audit-ready carbon data

UAE Federal Climate Reporting Law (2025)

  • Mandatory Emissions Reporting: Companies must report annual Scope 1 and 2 emissions, with Scope 3 when relevant.
  • The law applies to public, private, and free zone companies operating in the UAE.
  • Reports are submitted to MOCCAE or designated authorities for compliance review.
  • The law enables future participation in UAE carbon trading and offset platforms.
  • Effective: May 2025 — data collection should start now.

Coral’s Role: Helps UAE businesses prepare for compliance with structured emissions tracking

SECR – Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (UK)

  • Applies to quoted companies, large unquoted companies, and LLPs
