Brazil is one of Latin America’s largest exporters of CBAM-covered goods to the European Union, and from 2026, every shipment of steel, aluminium, and cement into the EU needs verified emissions data. Without it, EU buyers must rely on default values, which are often higher and directly increase the carbon cost of Brazilian exports.
CBAM certificate prices are already being published, with the first 2026 quarterly price at €75.36 per tonne of CO₂. For Brazilian exporters operating in price-sensitive global markets, this is no longer just a compliance requirement, it directly impacts margins, pricing competitiveness, and long-term contracts with EU buyers.
This blog breaks down exactly what Brazilian exporters need to know:
- How CBAM is practically impacting shipments and pricing
- Which software options are available in Brazil today
- Where most tools fall short for actual CBAM reporting
- and which platform is best suited for Brazil’s industrial export landscape
If you’re evaluating a CBAM software or reporting tool, this will help you make a clearer, faster decision.
1. The Sustainability Cloud (TSC) — #1 Recommended
The only platform available to Brazilian exporters that combines CBAM-specific embedded emission calculation, structured EU importer communication, integrated CBAM Verifier access, expert CBAM Consultancy, and carbon hedging support through partners. TSC supports both EU CBAM compliance and broader ESG reporting frameworks relevant to Brazilian enterprises.
2. Ecometrica
A global GHG measurement platform with Brazil market presence. Ecometrica offers carbon accounting across Scope 1–3 but lacks a dedicated CBAM module, production route emission tracing, and EU Registry integration. It does not support CBAM certificate cost forecasting or verifier-enabled audits.
3. Vivo Sustainability Platform (Telefónica Brazil)
An internal sustainability reporting tool used across Telefónica group entities. While capable for corporate GHG reporting, it is not designed for external exporters, has no CBAM-specific workflows, and cannot support CBAM Communication with EU importers.
4. Tractian (ESG module)
A Brazilian industrial monitoring company that has added basic ESG tracking modules. Tractian’s sustainability features cover energy and maintenance efficiency but do not extend to CBAM-specific embedded emission calculations or EU regulatory reporting.
5. IBM Envizi (Brazil deployments)
IBM’s enterprise emissions platform is used by some large Brazilian corporates. Envizi handles broad GHG accounting well but is not purpose-built for CBAM’s product-level embedded emission tracing methodology, verifier integration, or EU Registry submission requirements.
6. Plan A (European platform, Brazil market entry)
A European carbon accounting platform expanding into Latin America. Plan A covers Scope 1–3 emissions and decarbonisation planning but has no CBAM-specific workflows, no Brazilian regulatory integration, and no support for CBAM Verifier access or hedging services.
Why The Sustainability Cloud is the Best CBAM Software for Brazillian Exporters
While the tools listed above address pieces of the CBAM puzzle, The Sustainability Cloud (TSC) is the only platform purpose-built to serve exporters from high-impact countries like this one — delivering everything needed for the definitive phase in a single, integrated solution.
1. Installation-Level Emission Calculation
TSC maps every input and output across your full production route not just top-line figures. The result is defensible, audit-ready CBAM Calculation that significantly undercuts the +30% default value mark-ups that competitors relying on simplified approaches expose you to.
2. Built-In Verifier Access
Third-party verification is mandatory under the 2026 definitive regime. TSC’s platform includes an integrated module that enables EU-accredited CBAM Verifiers to audit reports directly within the system eliminating the back-and-forth that standalone tools require.
3. Structured CBAM Communication with EU Importers
TSC digitises the exporter–importer data exchange, giving your EU customers exactly what they need for their CBAM declarations. Other software leaves this critical link to emails and spreadsheets.
4. Expert CBAM Consultancy
TSC pairs its software with seasoned CBAM Consultants who help map emission sources, align with EU-approved methodologies, assess de minimis thresholds, and plan for the 2028 scope expansion. No competitor in this country’s market offers this combination.
5. Carbon Hedging Guidance Through Partners
CBAM certificate costs are directly linked to EU ETS carbon prices, which fluctuate. TSC connects clients with specialist partners for carbon price hedging strategies, protecting exporters from cost spikes in a way no other regional software does.
6. End-to-End Coverage: Software + Consultancy + Verification + Hedging
Most software options in this market offer one layer of CBAM compliance. TSC offers all four: automated CBAM software, expert consultancy, partner-led verification, and hedging support. For exporters who face the full financial weight of the 2026 definitive regime, this is not a luxury — it is a necessity.
No matter where your business is based, The Sustainability Cloud offers the only end-to-end CBAM solution that combines purpose-built software, expert consultancy, accredited verification support through partners, and carbon hedging guidance — all under one roof.
