CSRD early access

Watershed for CSRD is now available for early access!

CDP 2024 report builder

Watershed’s 2024 CDP report builder is now live! If you’re reporting to CDP this year, Watershed’s CDP report builder will save you time by automatically pulling the relevant emissions and energy metrics from your footprint. The report builder also includes updated advisory guidance for the new questionnaire, scoring guidance, 2023 peer benchmarks, and supplemental evidence and file attachment capabilities.
