Collect energy usage data from multiple sources, visualize trends in an executive dashboard, and automatically generate monthly sustainability reports for board meetings.

Workflow Steps

1

Airtable

Centralize carbon and energy data

Create an Airtable base to collect energy consumption data from multiple sources like utility bills, cloud provider usage reports, and facility management systems. Set up standardized fields for date, energy source, consumption amount, carbon intensity, and calculated emissions.

2

Tableau

Build interactive sustainability dashboard

Connect Tableau to your Airtable data source and create an executive dashboard showing energy consumption trends, carbon emissions over time, renewable energy percentage, and progress toward sustainability goals. Include month-over-month comparisons and projections.

3

Zapier

Generate automated board reports

Set up a monthly Zapier workflow that exports key metrics from Tableau, formats them into a professional board report template in Google Docs, and emails the completed sustainability report to executives and board members with key insights and recommendations.
