22.5%9 mo YTD vs 2025Carbon reporting has moved from optional to expected.
The repair sector is being pulled into decarbonisation by the customers it depends on. Baselining now is far cheaper than scrambling when a tender or an insurer asks.
Insurer & work providers
Insurers and work providers are decarbonising their own value chains and increasingly require their repair networks to report primary Scope 1–3 data, not estimates. Being ready protects the relationship and the volume of work.
ISO 14064, ARIES & SBTi
ISO 14064-1 sets the international rules for quantifying and reporting an organisation’s emissions, ARIES is the UK automotive-specific environmental standard your network is measured against, and SBTi defines the science-based reduction pathway. Metimo Auto produces output aligned to all three from your ledger.
Science-based target deadlines
SBTi carries fixed near-term and 2050 milestones, and you can set your own organisational target on top of that floor. The dashboard plots your reported actuals against both the SBTi pathway and your own pledge, then projects where your current pace lands — so you can see whether you are on or off track while there is still time to act. The longer you wait to baseline, the steeper — and more expensive — the annual cut becomes.
Lower cost, not just lower carbon
Every tonne you cut usually tracks a bill you stop paying — energy, fuel, paint and waste. Baselining now turns decarbonisation into an operational saving, so the work pays for itself rather than sitting as pure compliance cost.

What a general carbon tool can't do for a bodyshop.
Metimo Auto understands repairs, sites, work providers and the frameworks your customers ask about. Every card below is a real part of the product.
Carbon per repair
Emissions normalised against real throughput, so you can compare centres fairly and keep improving as volumes change. Only a repair-specific platform can measure this.

Ask Metimo
Ask questions about your own emissions in plain English. Answers come from your ledger, with the figures behind them, plus a short AI briefing on the Overview each month.
Why did Birmingham Central's gas go up last month?
Gas use was 38% higher than the same month last year, while repairs were up only 6%. Most of the rise is lower efficiency, not more work, so check the booth burner schedule first.

Where a repair centre's emissions actually come from.
The GHG Protocol sorts every tonne into three scopes. Metimo Auto maps your activity data to the right one automatically, so the split is consistent across every site.
- Suppliers & parts
- Your sites & fleet
- Waste, travel & end of life
- Scope 1On your sites
Direct emissions
Fuel you burn and gases you release from sources you own or control.
- Company vans & courtesy cars
- Spray booth & space-heating gas
- Refrigerant & air-con top-ups
- Scope 2From the grid
Indirect emissions: electricity, heat & steam
Electricity, heat and steam you buy, reported on a location and market basis.
- Grid electricity for lighting & tools
- Renewable tariffs & on-site solar
- Scope 3Across your value chain
Indirect emissions: upstream & downstream
Everything else your business causes, from what you buy to what you throw away.
- Parts, panels & paint purchased
- Inbound deliveries & logistics

The questions repairers ask before they start.
How long does onboarding take?
Most single sites have a first inventory on screen within days — you bring the activity data you already hold (fuel, energy, mileage, spend) and Metimo Auto does the calculation. Multi-site networks are staged site by site, with a shared collection workbook to gather primary data.
Where does my data live and is it secure?
Your data is hosted in the UK/EU, encrypted in transit and at rest, and scoped to your organisation with role-based access. Every input is versioned, so you keep a full, defensible audit trail of who changed what and when.
What if my activity data is messy or incomplete?
Every input carries a data-quality tier with a propagated confidence band, so partial data still produces a usable, honest number. Uploaded invoices are read by OCR and anything below the confidence threshold is queued for human review before it reaches the inventory.
Can I export reports for auditors and tenders?
Yes. Generate ARIES, PPN 006 and SBTi-style reports straight from the ledger, each carrying the data-quality tiering and uncertainty detail assurance providers expect, with every figure traceable to its source activity data and emission factor.
Can you backdate my baseline year with historic data?
Yes. If you hold the activity data for an earlier year — fuel, energy, mileage, waste, spend — we can build a full historic inventory and set that year as your baseline, so your reduction targets and glidepath are measured against where you genuinely started rather than the day you signed up. Historic figures carry the same data-quality tiering and factor traceability as live data, with each year mapped to the correct emission-factor vintage for that period, and once a baseline is set it is version-locked so any later restatement (a boundary change, an improved data source, an acquisition) is recorded transparently and keeps your trend line honest and audit-ready.
Does it work for a single bodyshop and for a large MSO?
Both. Run a single site on the platform base, or roll up an entire group with per-site managers and one consolidated view — then drill into any individual centre to compare performance and carbon intensity per repair.
