Using the reported baseline of emissions, we were able to immediately assess and recommend solutions that would significantly reduce carbon emissions and costs, including:
- An in-depth supply-chain analysis to highlight any potential efficiencies that are available and/or currently appropriate to be implemented.
- Establishing a tracking process for fuel use and/or distances travelled by type, as well as considering alternative modes of transport and route, that are more carbon efficient.
- Analysis into the requirement for the use of gas within the business premises and switching to green tariffs in the next energy contract tender to reduce carbon and fossil fuel reliance.
- Focusing on waste reduction measures where possible, by understanding the type of waste and disposal needed, as well as a potential zero waste to landfill policy.
- Switching to a 100% renewable energy tariff for purchased electricity and investigating the opportunities for the reduction in electricity consumption.
