How to calculate your business’ carbon footprint
In order to calculate your business’ carbon footprint, you need to convert elements such as energy usage (kWh) and the travel mileage of your business fleet into CO2 emissions. This will then allow you to accurately identify how much carbon your business is responsible for producing on a monthly, quarterly or yearly basis.
Many online calculators provide limited functionality to convert energy and travel mileage into C02 emissions, but data can be lost and may need to be repetitively input which over time can create inaccuracies and inconsistencies.
A solution to this problem is to engage with a specialised energy broker who can consult, support and set up your organisation with an effective online dashboard that allows you to capture, calculate and understand your carbon emissions, with the support of consultancy services and knowledgeable expertise to add advice on where efficiencies can be made.
