zerocarbon-python-sdk 2.0.0

Official Python SDK for ZeroCarbon.codes API

ZeroCarbon Python SDK

Official Python client for ZeroCarbon.codes - India's leading Carbon Accounting & Offsetting API.

Installation

pip install zerocarbon-sdk

Quick Start

from zerocarbon import ZeroCarbon

# Initialize client
client = ZeroCarbon(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")

# Calculate flight emissions
emissions = client.calculate.flight(
    origin="DEL",
    destination="BOM",
    cabin_class="economy"
)
print(f"Emissions: {emissions['emissions_kg_co2e']} kg CO2e")

# Get offset recommendations
offsets = client.offsets.get_recommendations(
    emissions_kg_co2e=emissions['emissions_kg_co2e'],
    preferred_region="India"
)
print(f"Top project: {offsets['recommendations'][0]['name']}")

# Purchase and retire credits
transaction = client.offsets.purchase(
    project_id=offsets['recommendations'][0]['project_id'],
    quantity_kg_co2e=emissions['emissions_kg_co2e'],
    retirement_reason="Business flight offsetting"
)
print(f"Certificate: {transaction['certificate_url']}")

Examples

Calculate Electricity Emissions

emissions = client.calculate.electricity(
    amount_kwh=1000,
    country="IN",
    state="Maharashtra"
)
# Returns: 820 kg CO2e (using India grid factor)

Smart Spend Matching

emissions = client.calculate.spend(
    amount=100000,
    currency="INR",
    category="electricity",
    description="Monthly office electricity bill"
)
# AI automatically matches to emission factors

Generate BRSR Report

report = client.brsr.generate_report(
    company_id="comp_123",
    financial_year="2024-25",
    format="pdf"
)
print(report['download_url'])

Test Mode

Enable test mode to avoid real charges:

client = ZeroCarbon(
    api_key="test_YOUR_API_KEY",
    test_mode=True
)
