If required, we can contract with independent third-party emissions assessment providers that are experts in businesses of your type, size and location. These include Anthesis, Ecometrica, Quantis and RSK.
Each CarbonNeutral® certification requires different emissions to be calculated.
For a CarbonNeutral® company certification the data needed includes things like fuel consumption on site and for company-owned vehicles, purchased energy, waste and business travel.
The assessment partner will explain the full set of data that should be included, and what should be excluded. Where data isn’t available they will also work with you to produce conservative estimates and assumptions.
We will work with you to select the best assessment partner based on your location, number of employees, the level of support needed, and any other considerations.
A kick-off call will begin the process by reviewing the scope of the assessment, what data is needed, agreeing the timeline and answering any questions.
While collecting data, support is available to you through both the Climate Impact Partners' team and your assessment partner.
Once your data has been gathered the assessment partner will calculate the footprint and provide you with a Greenhouse Gas Assessment Report, which underpins your CarbonNeutral® certification.
