PDF report types explained

Overview

The Thrust Calculator allows you to export 5 different types of reports. All of which allow you to see your business’s travel carbon footprint in more detail. All these reports can all be downloaded directly from the Calculator in pdf format and are emailed to the email associated with your Thrust Calculator account. You can also schedule an impact report to be sent to yourself and other key stakeholders on a regular basis.

Note: All 5 report types are available for Premium Instances, whereas trial Instances only have the ability to generate an Overview Report.

This report is ideal if you are looking for a quick snapshot of the carbon footprint of your travel program over a set period of time.

2. Full Report

The full report is the most comprehensive report that you can download from the Thrust Calculator. All the same components of the overview report and included within the full report in addition to:

• Recommendations on how to reduce emissions from your travel program.

• Detailed methodology information

3. Full without Appendix Report

This content of this report is identical to the full report minus the appendix. This report is suitable for those who want a comprehensive view of their travel programme’s carbon emissions but don’t need the details of carriers, trip length and air routes that come with the full report.  

4. Analysis Report

This report may be of interest to provide to your stakeholders who you wish to understand the methodology without giving them the tactical details of the emissions present in the Full reports.

5. Grouping Report

This report provides a summary analysis of the groupings within the instance. For example within this report you would get a breakdown of emissions per department within your company.
