Carbon Accounting is the measurement, management and reporting of the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions either within an organisation, or associated with a product. Ongoing carbon measurement and accounting can be embedded into an organisation in a similar way to financial accounting, and can provide a number of benefits.
If your organisation is required to comply with a particular Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) framework and/or Streamlined Energy Carbon Reporting (SECR), then you are required to report on your energy usage, GHG (Greenhouse Gas) emissions and an intensity metric.
You are also required to disclose the methodology used to calculate these metrics, and most importantly, any energy efficiency measures taken during the financial year being reported.
Please get in touch to discuss how carbon accounting or calculating your carbon footprint can positively impact your organisation, and the planet.
