Our Sustainable Business Services team worked with GeoPlace, an organisation that manages and maintains the primary UK address and street data, to measure and manage their greenhouse gas emissions.
In 2023 we retrospectively produced the organisation’s baseline 2019 GHG Inventory (carbon footprint) and the recent year 2022, including Scope 1, Scope 2 and extending this to cover key Scope 3 emissions arising from their value chain.
By comparing the baseline year with the recent year, we were able to verify that significant reductions had been achieved through the decommissioning of data centre servers and other potential carbon reduction actions through behaviour changes relating to commuting, business travel and accommodation.
Our consultants went on to deliver Carbon Literacy training to staff working within GeoPlace’s Environment Group, helping them to identify opportunities to further reduce their climate impacts both within the organisation and at home.
Groundwork helped clarify where our emissions are coming from and to understand what actions we can take to further reduce our carbon footprint

We are currently working on their latest GHG Inventory for 2023 and are excited to see what impact their latest actions have had.
