Carbonbaseline by Boxfish is a unique, 7 step process which supports SMEs and mid-sized corporates to understand their emissions intensity and identify opportunities to make their operations greener.
By measuring and tracking the Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions associated with your operations, Carbonbaseline enables a better understanding of the business impact on the environment, sets improvement targets and identifies measures that can reduce carbon, energy consumption and utility spend.
Not only that, Carbonbaseline also allows you to easily benchmark and compare your organisation against your competitors, as well as against different industry sectors by developing your Carbon Intensity Metric. This metric can then be used to set reduction targets and aligns with your wider journey out to a net-zero carbon future.
FAQs
What is a carbon baseline and why do I need one?
A carbon baseline is a calculation of your organisation’s total greenhouse gas emissions over a defined period – usually 12 months. It acts as a starting point to track your progress in reducing emissions over time. Whether you’re aiming for Net Zero, complying with SECR or ESOS, or planning sustainability improvements, having a clear baseline is essential for setting meaningful targets and monitoring progress.
What emissions are included in a carbon baseline report?
A typical carbon baseline report includes Scope 1 (direct emissions from owned sources, like company vehicles), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased energy, like electricity), and selected Scope 3 categories (like business travel, commuting, waste, or home working). At Boxfish, we tailor the report based on your operations and available data to ensure it meets compliance standards and provides practical insights.
How is data collected for a carbon baseline?
We make data collection as easy as possible. Our team will work with you to gather utility bills, transport data, mileage records, and other relevant information. We also provide support and templates to help streamline the process. Once we have your data, we calculate your carbon footprint using government-approved emission factors and industry best practices.
