Frequently Asked Questions (Rating)
Understanding the Ratings
Here are the answers to the most frequently asked questions about using our rating platform.
What does an "AAA" rating mean compared to a "D" rating?
The AAA rating represents ecological excellence (minimal or regenerative impact). Conversely, the D rating indicates a critical environmental impact or a complete lack of transparency on emissions data.
Where does the data used for the calculation come from?
We use a mix of public data (annual reports, government databases), satellite data for resource monitoring, and data provided by our technology partner DEVA through carbon footprint analysis algorithms.
Why doesn't a company appear in your results?
Our database is constantly expanding. If a company is not yet rated, it is either because we are in the data collection phase, or because the available information is insufficient to guarantee a reliable score.
Can a company pay to improve its rating?
Absolutely not. Independence is the cornerstone of Eco-Rating. Scores are automatically calculated by impartial algorithms. The only way to improve a rating is to concretely reduce the environmental impact proven by verifiable data.
