## Description

You can now bring environmental compliance directly into your AI workflow. This MCP provides the specific math and regulatory logic needed to turn raw fuel and vent data into actionable reports. Instead of manually looking up multipliers or checking threshold tables, you let your agent handle the heavy lifting. 

Your agent uses this MCP to determine total annual pollutant mass or to calculate how carbon efficient an operation actually is. It also checks if your current emissions levels trigger mandatory filings in specific regions like the EU or the USA. Because it can query specific emission factors for various substances, you don't have to worry about using outdated multipliers. It's a direct way to bridge the gap between your operational data and the regulatory requirements you need to meet.

## Tools

### calculate_annual_emissions
This tool determines the total mass of specific pollutants emitted over a full year.

### check_reporting_thresholds
Use this to evaluate if your calculated emissions require a formal regulatory filing.

### get_ghg_intensity
This tool calculates the carbon efficiency of a specific operation.

### query_emission_factors
This tool retrieves the correct multiplier for a specific substance and activity.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate my annual emissions for 500 units of CO2 in the USA.
```

**Response:** 
```
The total mass of CO2 emitted is 500 units based on the provided activity data for the USA jurisdiction.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the GHG intensity if I have 1000kg of emissions and produced 5000 units?
```

**Response:** 
```
The GHG intensity is 0.2 kg per unit produced.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Check if 50000kg of CO2 exceeds reporting thresholds in the EU.
```

**Response:** 
```
Yes, the emissions exceed the mandatory reporting threshold for CO2 in the EU.
```

## Capabilities

### Pollutant Mass Calculation
Your agent calculates the total mass of pollutants based on fuel and vent data.

### Carbon Efficiency Tracking
The AI measures GHG intensity to monitor operational carbon efficiency.

### Regulatory Threshold Checks
Your agent identifies if emissions hit mandatory limits in the USA or EU.

### Emission Factor Retrieval
The AI pulls specific multipliers for different substances and activities.

## Use Cases

### Regulatory Compliance Audits
Check if your current year's emissions exceed the legal limits set by the EU or USA.

### Carbon Footprint Monitoring
Track GHG intensity across different production cycles to monitor efficiency.

### Annual Reporting Preparation
Calculate the total mass of pollutants to prepare for mandatory yearly filings.

### Operational Efficiency Analysis
Use GHG intensity to compare the carbon impact of different manufacturing processes.

## Benefits

- Automates the lookup of substance-specific emission multipliers.
- Reduces manual calculation errors for annual pollutant mass.
- Provides instant feedback on regulatory filing requirements.
- Connects operational data to carbon efficiency metrics.

## How It Works

Connect the MCP to your client and start asking questions about your environmental data.

1. Connect your preferred MCP-compatible client to Vinkius.
2. Provide your agent with fuel, vent, or production data.
3. Ask the agent to calculate emissions or check thresholds.
4. The agent uses the MCP tools to perform the math and retrieve factors.
5. Receive the calculated results and compliance status immediately.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**Which jurisdictions are supported for threshold checks?**
The MCP currently supports checking reporting thresholds for the USA and the EU.

**How does the MCP handle different substances?**
It uses the query_emission_factors tool to find the specific multiplier for the substance you are analyzing.

**Can I use this with Claude or Cursor?**
Yes, you can connect this MCP to any MCP-compatible client including Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf.

**What is GHG intensity?**
It is a measure of carbon efficiency, calculated by comparing emissions to units produced.

**Do I need to host the MCP myself?**
No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you, so it is ready to use once you connect.

**How do I know if my emissions require formal reporting?**
You can use the `check_reporting_thresholds` tool. It compares your calculated pollutant masses against the mandatory limits for your specific jurisdiction.

**Which jurisdictions are supported?**
The server currently supports major regulatory regions including the USA and the EU.

**What data is needed for annual emissions?**
You need to provide activity data, which includes fuel consumption amounts, fuel types, and process vent volumes as a JSON array.
