Your pathway to net-zero
With the UK government announcing its plans for net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, it’s crucial for businesses to start setting and implementing their own carbon reduction and net-zero plans.
Our expert environmental consultants will work with you to calculate your emissions and establish a comprehensive pathway for your business to reach net-zero emissions.
Our carbon management services:
Our services are tailored to your organisation and can include:
- Carbon footprint accounting and reporting – Our team will work with you to understand and quantify your emissions and produce an annual ‘carbon footprint’ or greenhouse gas inventory.
- Value chain/scope 3 emissions – Often accounting for over 75% of total emissions, we can help you to quantify ‘Scope 3’ emissions arising from the products and services you buy in, as well as other downstream emissions arising from the delivery of your products and services, and to engage with suppliers to reduce these.
- Onsite carbon reduction audits – We can identify opportunities for efficiencies covering a breakdown of onsite energy use and emissions, and waste and water management and efficiency.
- Carbon Reduction Plans – Many larger organisations and government bodies now require their suppliers to have a Carbon Reduction Plan (e.g. in line with PPN 06/21) and we can help you to produce a bespoke plan for your organisation.
- Pathways to Net Zero – Increasingly your customers will want to see that you are decarbonising your activities in line with government and industry commitments and our team can help you establish a comprehensive pathway for your business to reach net-zero emissions, in line with science-based targets to limit global climate change.
- Providing external assurance for carbon reporting – If you are already quantifying your emissions in house, we can provide valuable third-party verification and assurance.
- Standards such as PAS 2060 – Support with the implementation and management of PAS 2060 specification on how to demonstrate carbon neutrality
So, whether you’re just starting out with carbon emissions calculations and reporting or need to develop a more comprehensive carbon reduction strategy, we can help.
