The Problem

Agents Are a Carbon Black Box

Three systemic failures invisible to every existing carbon framework.

Agentic Loops
Multi-step chains compound carbon cost invisibly.

use spreadsheets for carbon accounting

Under mandatory CSRD limited assurance, spreadsheet AI figures cannot survive testing. Material misstatement exposes directors to legal liability.

CO₂e per AI prompt — Google confirmed

Google confirmed no real-time per-chat reporting exists. ACERM already does this — for every inference, with cryptographic proof, using Google's own published benchmark.

enterprises facing mandatory CSRD audits

The EU Omnibus I Directive targets ~5,000 large enterprises. Every one needs verifiable AI emissions data. No existing tool provides it.

Methodology

How the Environmental Firewall Works

ACERM operates as a mandatory network chokepoint between AI agents and upstream providers. Every request is evaluated against live UK National Grid ESO carbon intensity data in under 1ms. Every decision is recorded in a SHA-256 sequential hash chain — tamper-evident, independently verifiable, and suitable for ESRS E1 limited assurance.
