The right strategy for you

Any journey to Net Zero must start with an expert analysis of your current energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions from across your buildings and workplaces. We measure scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions across all your facilities, buildings, HVAC and infrastructure. In turn, a baseline is set which allows us to create a strategy that’s uniquely aligned to your business and operational requirements, and your carbon reduction targets - ensuring compliance with all regulatory standards. We recommend the best Renewable Guarantee of Origin (REGO) backed alternative energy sources for your business and reassess all current and planned carbon offsetting solutions.

Funding solutions are also provided including: upfront investment for energy saving projects (EPC), Revolving Green Fund (RGF) rebates, and Power Purchase Agreements with capital-investment-free power generation installation.
