GHG and carbon accounting
We help organisations structure greenhouse gas (GHG) inventories, coordinate data collection and prepare transparent calculation records to understand their emissions and inform reduction planning.
Who we support
- Organisations preparing their first GHG inventory or improving an existing one.
- Teams coordinating emissions information across business operations and suppliers.
- Businesses responding to customer requests for organisational emissions information.
How we can help
Inventory scope and planning
Help define organisational and operational boundaries, identify relevant emissions sources and agree the reporting period, responsibilities and working approach.
Data collection and coordination
Prepare data requests and working templates, coordinate internal and supplier inputs, and record data gaps and follow-up actions.
Scope 1 and Scope 2 calculations
Support calculations for direct emissions from owned or controlled sources and for emissions from purchased or acquired electricity, steam, heat and cooling, with documented activity data, emission factors and assumptions.
Scope 3 screening and estimation
Screen value-chain emissions categories, prioritise data collection and prepare estimates for agreed categories, documenting methods, limitations and opportunities to improve data quality.
Inventory documentation and quality review
Organise calculation workbooks and supporting evidence, review completeness and consistency, and document exclusions, assumptions and uncertainties. This advisory quality review is not independent verification or assurance.
Reduction planning and team guidance
Use inventory findings to identify emissions hotspots, explore potential reduction measures and help teams establish practical responsibilities for maintaining and improving their inventory.
Typical deliverables
Depending on the agreed scope, an engagement may include:
- Inventory boundary and methodology note.
- Data collection templates and responsibility tracker.
- Scope 1 and Scope 2 calculation workbooks.
- Scope 3 screening and estimates for agreed categories.
- Emission-factor register and documented assumptions.
- Inventory summary, data-quality findings and improvement actions.
How an engagement works
Agree the purpose, boundaries and scope.
Collect information and prepare calculations.
Review findings and agree improvement priorities.
