Construction Equipment Emissions Tracking Software for Fleet Sustainability
Clue tracks CO2, fuel use, idle hours, engine hours, and utilization for each piece of equipment. Teams measure progress for owner reports and fleet plans.
Sustainability
Fuel, idle, hours and utilization. One emissions picture.
CO2 Emissions Tracking From Fleet Telematics
Construction CO2 tracking turns fuel and telematics data into figures for each asset. Clue ties each figure to idle time, engine hours, and utilization.
Fuel consumption inputs: Use asset-level fuel rate, fuel volume, and fuel cost from fuel report
CO2 emissions metrics: Review CO2 emissions alongside idle hours, fuel efficiency, wasted idle cost, and utilization, where data is available
Telematics fuel and hour data: Bring fuel use, idle hours, engine hours, odometer readings, and utilization data into Clue from supported OEM and GPS integrations
Tracked and untracked assets: Teams view all equipment in one report. They add usage, fuel, meter, and asset records for equipment outside their telematics feeds.
Equipment Idle Time Tracking for Fuel and Emissions Waste
Idle time burns fuel, adds engine hours, and adds CO2 while work stands still. Teams plan idle reduction by comparing hours across assets, projects, fleet groups, or reporting periods.
Idle activity by asset: Review idle hours across assets, projects, fleet groups, or reporting periods
Fuel waste calculation: Compare idle time against fuel use, fuel efficiency, and wasted idle cost
CO2 impact reporting: Tie idle patterns to CO2 output and fleet sustainability reporting
Idle time follow-up: Sort idle hours by asset, project, fleet group, or reporting period. Find the assets and jobsites that idle most.
Fleet Emissions Data for Owner and ESG Reporting Requests
Clue helps teams organize CO2, fuel, idle, and utilization data into fleet emissions records for owner requests, sustainability reviews, and ESG reporting inputs.
Fleet emissions records: Review CO2, fuel, idle, and utilization data for owner requests and sustainability reviews
Reporting-period views: Review fleet emissions data by month, quarter, year, project, fleet group, or available reporting field
Scheduled report delivery: Send recurring reports to selected stakeholders daily, weekly, or monthly
Connect Fuel Efficiency to Asset Cost Decisions
The Fuel Report shows fuel rate, volume, and cost per asset. Fleet Financials shows each asset's revenue, cost, and profitability.
Fuel cost by asset: Review fuel rate, fuel volume, and fuel cost across individual assets
Profitability view: Compare fuel and operating cost against revenue and asset profitability in Fleet Financials
Cost-heavy asset review: Identify assets that may need maintenance, reassignment, rental review, or replacement planning

Common questions
Construction equipment emissions tracking FAQ.
How does Clue calculate construction equipment emissions?
Clue calculates CO2 by multiplying the fuel each asset uses by the CO2 factor for its fuel type and fuel unit. Telematics supplies fuel use. Clue can also estimate fuel from miles driven and average mpg, tank-level drops, or operating and idle hours times fuel burn per hour. Clue reports CO2 in kg or lbs. It also shows carbon intensity, or CO2 per operating hour.
What data does Clue use for fleet emissions tracking?
Clue can use fuel consumption, idle hours, engine hours, odometer readings, utilization data, and asset records. These inputs can come from Fuel Report, Asset Utilization Report, supported telematics integrations, and available fleet records.
What telematics providers does Clue support for emissions data?
Clue supports 80+ integrations for off-highway equipment, including John Deere, Caterpillar (VisionLink), Komatsu (Komtrax), Volvo, Hitachi, Liebherr, and AEMP 2.0 feeds under ISO 15143-3. Clue syncs engine hours and odometer data. Available fuel, idle, and runtime fields depend on each provider's feed. The team maps each source during setup.
How accurate is emissions tracking from telematics?
The accuracy comes from the fuel, idle, runtime, and utilization data each asset reports. The figures support fleet reporting, trend review, and reduction planning. A direct tailpipe reading needs a separate data source.
Can Clue track idle-related fuel waste and CO2 emissions?
Yes. The Utilization Report shows idle hours, idle rate, fuel used, fuel efficiency, CO2, fuel in idle, wasted cost from idling, and utilization rate for each asset. Clue shows fuel in idle when telematics reports it. Clue calculates wasted cost from a set cost per idle hour above a limit. Teams use these figures to plan idle reduction and lower fuel use and CO2.
Can Clue help with ESG reporting?
Clue supplies fleet emissions, fuel use, idle time, utilization, and asset activity data for construction ESG reporting. Other systems supply data on purchased electricity, materials, and suppliers.
Does Clue support Scope 1, Scope 2, or Scope 3 reporting?
Clue’s strongest fit is fleet-related Scope 1 reporting inputs from owned or operated equipment fuel use. Scope 2 and Scope 3 reporting usually require additional data outside fleet operations, such as purchased electricity, materials, suppliers, transport, and subcontractor activity.
Can Clue help set emissions reduction targets and track progress?
Your team sets the emissions target. Clue shows fuel use, idle activity, utilization, and CO2 trends by month, quarter, or year. Teams can schedule reports for each day, week, or month.
Does Clue support equipment without telematics?
Yes. Clue supports mixed fleets with tracked and untracked assets. For assets without telematics, reporting depends on available usage, fuel, meter, and asset records rather than automatic telematics feeds.
Can teams build custom sustainability reports in Clue?
Yes. Clue supports Custom Reports with AI Builder, so teams can build reports around fuel, idle, utilization, CO2, asset groups, projects, and reporting periods. Reports can also be scheduled for daily, weekly, or monthly delivery.
What tools does Clue provide for construction fleet emissions reporting?
Clue provides reports, dashboards, asset detail pages, custom tools, and scheduled email reports. The Utilization Report shows CO2 per asset, fuel used, fuel in idle, and carbon intensity per operating hour. The Fuel Report shows fuel rate, volume, and cost per asset. Custom reports and the AI Report Builder pull CO2, fuel, and idle fields. Teams can send scheduled reports to any email address each day, week, or month.
What is construction fleet sustainability software?
Construction sustainability software tracks fuel use, idle time, engine hours, utilization, and CO2 for each piece of equipment. It turns that data into reports for owners and ESG reviews. Clue brings tracked and untracked equipment into one fleet view, so teams can review the full fleet in one place.
How does idle reduction for construction equipment lower fuel use and CO2?
Idle reduction lowers fuel use and CO2 by cutting engine run time during idle periods. Clue shows idle hours for each asset. For equipment with reported telematics data, Clue also shows fuel used in idle. Teams can compare assets and jobsites, set a target utilization percentage for each asset, and track the trend through scheduled reports. Clue uses a set cost per idle hour to show idle cost.
How can construction fleet fuel efficiency show which equipment has the highest fuel cost for its work?
The Fuel Report and Fleet Financials give teams the data to compare fuel cost with each asset's revenue, cost, and profitability. The Fuel Report shows fuel rate, volume, and cost per asset. Fleet Financials shows revenue, cost, and profitability per asset. A dedicated card lists assets whose costs exceed revenue.
