Free CSRD Reporting Template – 30-Day Trial Included

Create Your Own CSRD & Sustainability Reporting Template in hours

Many companies begin their sustainability journey by searching for a “CSRD reporting template” or “sustainability reporting template.” By nature, we like to use tools we already know, so Excel sheets and Word docs are a natural first step.

But here’s the challenge: templates quickly become outdated, and filling them manually takes literally months. Depending on your industry, there are easily 500 data points in a CSRD report, and filling them all in manually is minimum work of weeks for several people.

There is a smarter option: a free 30-day trial of Planmark’s CSRD reporting platform. In just 1–2 weeks, you’ll have not only a customised CSRD template, but also your first full report draft — already filled with your own data.

And it’s 100% free.

What is a Sustainability Reporting Template?

A sustainability reporting template is usually a structured document in Excel or Word that helps companies organize environmental, social, and governance (ESG) data in one place. It can be a good starting point because:

• It gives you a framework to follow.

• You can map your first datapoints.

• It helps create internal awareness.

However, as reporting obligations grow more complex — especially under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) — templates alone are not enough if you dont want to waste all your work time in filling in excel sheets.

Why Use CSRD Software Instead of a Static Template?

While Excel sheets and Word documents can help you start, they come with serious limitations:

• Time-consuming → Filling 500 datapoints manually takes months.

• Error-prone → Copy-paste mistakes can put compliance at risk.

• Hard to update → Every time data changes, the template must be redone.

• Limited collaboration → Multiple stakeholders working on the same file creates version chaos.

Planmark solves all of this:

• Saves 80–90% of reporting time.

• Keeps your report always compliant with the latest CSRD requirements.

• Updates in real time, not once a year.

• Ensures sustainability teams focus on impact and strategy, not macros and manual input.

If you still want to use excel sheets and templates, just download the report before the end of the 30-Day Free Trial period and then upload the report with pre-filled CSRD data. This is 100% Free, no commitment of any kind required.

Who Is This Trial For?

Planmark’s free trial (and the CSRD template) is ideal for:

• Companies preparing their first CSRD report.

• Sustainability managers tired of juggling spreadsheets.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I really use this as a CSRD template?
Yes. The output you get is a structured CSRD draft report that you can use as your company’s personalised template going forward. It does not download as excel template, but after the download you can upload the document in Excel or Google Sheets and organize it there. All your existing data will already be pre-filled in correct data points.

How long does it take?
Most companies have their first draft report within 1–2 weeks. It really only takes time because collaboration is required from several people. Your first CSRD template (or report) you can download in 1-2 hours to take a look how it looks like. There is very simple dashboard (image below) that shows where you are at with your sustainability report at the moment.
