France Company Carbon Reports: ADEME BEGES Emissions

Get the official greenhouse gas reports (BEGES) that French companies, public bodies and local authorities file on the ADEME platform. About 12,000 reports from about 8,000 organisations, from 2009 to today, updated regularly by ADEME.

Large French companies (more than 500 employees, 250 overseas), public bodies and local authorities must publish a BEGES. This Actor turns the ADEME open data into clean rows: scope 1, scope 2 and scope 3 totals in tonnes of CO2 equivalent, the 22-line breakdown, the reference year, reduction targets, CSRD status and the link to the full report.

What you can do

• Look up a list of companies by SIREN or SIRET: get their latest carbon report, and see which ones have none (sirensWithoutReport in the summary).
• Find prospects or benchmarks: filter by sector (NAF/APE code), department, organisation type, reporting year, publication date, CSRD status or minimum total emissions.
• Monitor new reports: turn on alert mode and schedule the Actor weekly. You only get (and pay for) reports you have not received yet.

Useful for carbon accounting and CSRD consultants, ESG analysts, sustainability software vendors, procurement teams (supplier carbon data), banks and insurers.

}

(Breakdown shortened in this example.) The last row of each run is a run summary with counts, the SIRENs without any report and the source data date.

Scopes follow the BEGES categories: category 1 = scope 1 (direct), category 2 = scope 2 (energy), categories 3 to 6 = scope 3 (transport, purchases, sold products, other). Older reports (method v4) usually only contain scopes 1 and 2: scope3Reported is then false.

Input

Field	Meaning
sirens	SIREN (9 digits) or SIRET (14 digits) list
nameQuery	Full-text search on the organisation name
structureTypes	company, public_body, local_authority, state, association
nafCodes	NAF/APE prefixes, e.g. 62, 4791A
departments	e.g. 75, 69, 2A, 974
minReportingYear, publishedSince	Time filters
csrdOnly, minTotalEmissionsTco2e	Extra filters
latestOnly	One row per organisation (default) or full history
includeTexts	Adds presentation, policy and reduction actions texts
onlyNew + stateStoreName	Alert mode
maxItems	Cap on delivered (and charged) reports (default 200)

With no input at all, you get the 200 most recently published reports.

Pricing

Pay per event: $0.005 per carbon report delivered. SIRENs without a report, filtered-out or older reports, reports already seen in alert mode and the summary row are free. Example: checking 1,000 suppliers where 120 have a report costs $0.60 plus the platform start.

Privacy

The ADEME file also lists the name, job, phone and e-mail of the person in charge of each report. This Actor never requests or returns these personal fields: only organisation-level data.
