Carbon Neutrality
Consumers support and are demanding climate action. This consumer demand is magnified by supply chains where many are engaging with their own suppliers and requiring net zero emissions in order to secure future business. Investors also want net zero portfolios with many making portfolio-wide investment commitments to net zero emissions. These external factors are validated by our government’s commitment to net zero by 2050. Signalling your commitment to climate action by becoming carbon neutral, now more than ever, is crucial to future-proof your business.
“It’s surely our responsibility to do everything within our power to create a planet that provides a home not just for us, but for all life on Earth.”–David Attenborough
STEPS TOWARDS NET ZERO
Starting with a comprehensive carbon accounting process, we accurately report on your current carbon emissions. Utilising this measure, we drive your business to net zero through a combination of electricity usage reduction where possible, replacement of fossil fuel consumption with renewables, procurement of energy efficient products and services with the balance taken up by carbon offsets if necessary.
ACHIEVING NET ZERO AND MAINTAINING IT
Implementing an Energy Management System (EnMS) ensures your business maintains its carbon neutral status. It involves a combination of actions starting with the establishment of your energy strategy, associated policy and action plan. The implemented strategies then require review annually to ensure successful outcomes. The review process also allows for insight feed-back to ensure continuous improvement and maintenance of your carbon neutral status.
