Abstract
A Scope 3 emission system includes a controller with a microprocessor and a memory. The memory stores executable instructions that when executed by the microprocessor cause the microprocessor to perform a computer-executable method. The method comprises generating embeddings based on enterprise financial transaction data, enterprise metadata, and crowd source data, and generating sector wise carbon-aware spatio-temporal weights indicative of an estimated level of Scope 3 emissions produced by a corresponding commodity sector. The method further includes generating a carbon-aware natural language processing (NLP) foundation model (FM) based on the embeddings and the sector wise carbon-aware spatio-temporal weights. User-generated data indicating at least one target commodity sector and spend data associated with the target commodity sector is input into the NLP FM, and the NLP FM outputs an estimation of the Scope 3 emissions based on the least one target commodity sector and the spend data.
