Carbon Intelligence

Know the Facts
about your Carbon position
about your regulatory position
about the Carbon market. 

Be Intelligent
in your response to the
challenges and opportunities
that carbon reporting and
the carbon market bring.

 


The 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP 21) held in Paris in December 2015 adopted a resoution to reduce carbon output “as soon as possible” and for all 195 countries to do their best to keep global warming “to well below 2 degrees C”.

The Australian Federal Government has conducted the second auction of the Emissions Reduction Fund, the centrepiece of its Direct Action Plan for the control of Carbon emissions in Australia, and has repealed the Clean Energy Future legislative package with the last Carbon Tax payments made in February 2015.

Greenhouse Gas Emission Statement

Stakeholders including customers, global advocacy groups such as the Carbon Disclosure Project, and regulatory authorities have one thing in common: they start with your Greenhouse Gas Emission Statement.

The first step in any Carbon management program is to assess your position, called a Greenhouse Gas Emission Statement (or Assertion) in the global Protocol and International Standard, also simply called a Carbon Footprint.

We help Australian companies to produce a Greenhouse Gas Emission Statement for their operation.
Carbon Intelligence brings a pragmatic, cost effective, business orientated approach to helping your organisation understand its Carbon position.

The international http://www.ghgprotocol.org/about-ghgp “>Protocol and Australia’s http://www.cleanenergyregulator.gov.au/National-Greenhouse-and-Energy-Reporting/Pages/default.aspx “>National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Scheme (NGERS) separate emissions into three Scopes:

Scope 1 is the emissions you directly create, by for example burning fuel oil in an industrial boiler.
Scope 2 is the emissions you indirectly create, by for example using electricity that the electricity authority has burnt coal to generate.
Scope 3 is the other indirect emissions created by your activities, for example emissions from employee travel.

The Scopes are separated to avoid double counting emissions; for example between an electricity authority (Scope 1 emissions for the utility company at the power station) and the company consuming the electricity (Scope 2 for the consuming company).

Australia’s http://www.cleanenergyregulator.gov.au/National-Greenhouse-and-Energy-Reporting/Pages/default.aspx “>National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Scheme (NGERS) calls for large emitters to report their Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions.

Scope 3 emissions must be included when making marketing claims, such as ‘Carbon Neutral’ or ‘120 gram Carbon’ on a bottle of imported water.


Carbon Intelligence can assist your organisation to determine your Greenhouse Gas Emission Statement in a number of ways.

We can

- Help you understand Greenhouse Gas Emission Statements and Scopes using information workshops or one-to-one discussions.
- Work with you to determine the Scopes to be measured, and create a project plan including partitioning the organisation into emitting segments (Sites).
- Help you understand what data needs to be collected at each Site, and how to manage this process in complex organisations.
- Accurately record all the relevant data so that it will meet developing Audit requirements. (We have been submitting advice to Government on the draft Audit regulations.)
- Issue you with a Greenhouse Gas Emission Statement certificate for each Site.
- Help you write your Carbon Disclosure Project Survey Response. 
- Deploy software tools to turn the data into management information
- Training your people to do this process for you.
- In future, enable you to use specific software tools within your own organisation.
