Businesses can drive revenue growth, minimise costs and enhance reputation by taking action on carbon reduction.

An offset inclusive carbon management strategy presents an effective, credible plan to reduce carbon emissions immediately and prepares a company for the future. 

Offset purchasing

An offset inclusive carbon reduction plan enables businesses to take immediate, cost-effective action to meet their carbon emissions reduction target and realise the business value of achieving their goal. 

As all the options to meet carbon reduction targets are considered, carbon offsets allow businesses to evaluate the proposals in terms of the cost of reducing a tonne of carbon, and then implement those with a lower cost than the cost of an offset. In addition, carbon offsets, or credits, provide essential carbon finance to the development of emission reduction projects around the world which would not happen without the additional investment from the carbon credit finance. Every carbon credit purchased from The CarbonNeutral Company equals one tonne of carbon reduction made through verified projects. These projects use proven carbon emissions reduction technologies and processes including hydro, wind, biofuel power, reforestation and methane capture.

Our Carbon Sourcing team has unrivalled access to offset projects being developed and carbon credits being sold throughout the world. The team's network of contacts, expertise at procuring carbon credits, knowledge of the requirements for quality assurance and understanding of the processes for validating, verifying, registering and retiring carbon credits, means we are in a unique position to offer businesses a range of carbon offset purchasing options including:

• Immediate transactions from pre-screened projects representing a variety of standards, technologies and locations in our existing inventory
• Access to a range of unique projects generating small-scale social carbon or large-scale compliance credits
• Custom built carbon portfolios sourced to meet your specific carbon reduction goals and budget.
  

Calculator licensing

Carbon calculators can engage staff, suppliers and customers around carbon reduction targets and support plans for behaviour, process and systems changes to meet the goal.  We offer an off-the-shelf calculator which can be branded for your company and used on your intranet or website to enable stakeholders to purchase offsets for their activities. Alternatively, if you have specific requirements, using our knowledge of reporting factors and calculator functionality, we can build a calculator to meet particular requirements.  A calculator for your website or intra/extranet can measure the carbon emissions from any activity – for example, hosting events, printing publications or taking a flight.

Pledge programme

We have developed a Carbon Reduction Pledge Programme which gives businesses an easy-to-use framework to engage employees on identifying carbon savings across the entire operation.

It enables a company with offices in multiple regions to get the buy-in they need to work to a common carbon reduction plan.   Following a process of establishing Carbon Champions and using a reductions menu, management are able to set informed targets for internal reductions that are achievable.  In order to meet their stretching targets to reduce carbon emissions, businesses then enhance their carbon management plan with a programme of offset purchasing which will deliver immediate, cost-effective carbon reduction results.
