Europe’s energy transition no longer allows for improvisation. Since August 2024, with the implementation of EU Regulation 24-17-87, energy companies are required to submit detailed, verifiable reports of their emissions. In this new context, Esders is positioning itself as a key player in digitizing environmental traceability, as showcased during FES Iberia 2025, one of the region’s leading energy forums.
“Europe now demands precise data, not estimates. Our solution captures emissions in real time with full traceability,” explains Amir Irvanian, Vice President of International Market Strategy and Sales at Esders.
Direct measurement: cornerstone of the new regulation
EU 24-17-87 mandates that companies report their annual CO₂-equivalent emissions, providing details such as date, time, location, and source of each release. Furthermore, the regulation introduces a dual-level reporting structure: source level, for individual leak or flaring events, and site level, for overall site emissions.
“The challenge isn’t just measuring, it’s making sure both reports match. The European Union has removed any room for ambiguity,” Irvanian emphasizes.
To meet these requirements, Esders’ solution captures data through on-site sensors connected to a digital documentation system. This approach aligns with the EU’s explicit preference for direct measurement over statistical methods.
A modular platform for environmental traceability
Esders’ offering combines modular hardware, digital monitoring, and automated reporting. The platform integrates high-precision sensors, GPS-enabled mobile devices, real-time data transmission, and dashboards compatible with regulatory frameworks.
“The new regulation pushes companies toward full digitalization. We offer infrastructure that is ready from day one,” adds Irvanian.
Additionally, Esders supports complementary technologies such as drones, vehicle-based systems, and satellite monitoring to ensure consistency between local and global measurements.
Beyond gas: enabling infrastructure for renewable energy
While historically focused on gas networks, Esders’ technology is increasingly applied to renewable energy infrastructure. Its systems are used in district heating networks, biogas plants, and other installations requiring certified environmental performance.
“Everything that’s part of the energy transition needs traceability. Our solution isn’t just for gas—it supports any operation aiming for sustainability,” Irvanian clarifies.
Internally, Esders also practices what it preaches: the company operates using 100% renewable electricity, incorporates solar panels on-site, and offers EV charging stations for employees and customers, aligning its operations with Europe’s decarbonization goals.
