Our Comprehensive Approach
A Decarbonisation Audit gives your business a clear, evidence-based plan to reach net zero. We assess your emissions profile on-site, uncovering every reduction opportunity. Each action is costed, measured for impact, and prioritised, so you get a practical, investment-ready roadmap that balances carbon savings with commercial results.
Decarbonisation
Audits
We don’t just look at the big-ticket items. Our audits drill down into every energy-consuming process and asset, no matter how small. This detailed approach ensures no opportunity for efficiency is overlooked and that our recommendations are tailored precisely to your operations.
Strategic
Planning
Every business is different. That’s why our audit findings are translated into a step-by-step decarbonisation roadmap, balancing quick wins with long-term strategies. Each solution is ranked by cost and carbon impact, so you can plan investments with confidence.
Stakeholder
Engagement
Successful decarbonisation requires alignment across the organisation, from board-level strategy to operational teams on the ground. Our audit process brings stakeholders together, building understanding and accountability at every level.
Review &
Adaptation
Technology and regulations evolve quickly. That’s why we treat your roadmap as a living plan, reviewing and updating it regularly to ensure your decarbonisation strategy stays effective, compliant, and aligned with industry best practice.
Deep Dive into Decarbonisation
Our audits highlight the specific levers your business can pull to accelerate emissions reduction:
Understanding Carbon Intensity
By analysing which areas of your operations produce the most emissions, we identify priority hotspots where targeted interventions deliver the biggest impact.
The Role of Renewable Energy
From solar and wind to battery storage, renewables are now cost-effective and reliable. We assess the role they can play in your operations and where they deliver the strongest return on investment.
Equipment and Operational Upgrades
Replacing or retrofitting inefficient equipment can unlock immediate energy and carbon savings. Our audits pinpoint these opportunities and provide clear cost–benefit analysis for each option.
Innovation in Clean Technologies
Carbon capture, hydrogen, and emerging low-carbon solutions are no longer future concepts. We explore which innovative technologies could fit into your long-term decarbonisation strategy.
Understanding Your Decarbonisation Audit
Scope 1: Direct Emissions
These are the emissions you directly control, such as fuel burned in company vehicles, onsite boilers, or other equipment. Tracking Scope 1 highlights where efficiency improvements or fuel switching can have immediate results.Scope 3: Value Chain Emissions
For many businesses, Scope 3 is the largest, covering everything from supply chain logistics to business travel, waste, and product use. These emissions are harder to track, but understanding them is essential for a credible Net Zero strategy.
Scope 2: Indirect Energy Emissions
Scope 2 emissions come from purchased electricity, heat, or steam. Understanding your energy sources, and the carbon intensity behind them, allows you to make informed decisions about renewables, efficiency upgrades, and energy procurement strategies.Turning Insights Into Action
