The first step on your path to net zero

Carbon accounting is the process of tracking and measuring the amount of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases emitted or removed by your organization. It’s critical for understanding and managing your business’s environmental impact, enabling you to set informed reduction targets, demonstrate progress, and comply with regulations.

Carbon accounting can encompass Scope 1 & 2 emissions, and the entire 15 Scope 3 categories across your business, or be restricted to a specific boundary.

If you’re new to net-zero strategy planning, the complex terminology and plethora of guidance documents and accreditation schemes can seem daunting. When you partner with Trident, our experienced team and purpose-built Pulse software platform streamline the process into simpler steps, delivering complete visibility so you can measure your success at every stage.

Energy surveys and concise audits

A thorough energy survey or audit is essential for any decarbonisation strategy or plan for lowering energy expenses. Not only do they provide insight into areas and methods for reducing consumption and carbon emissions, they can help you build resilience against climate and market-related risks, and can form the basis of a solid case for projects that require capital expenditure.

Many businesses undertake surveys in order to comply with specific government legislation, notably the Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS). We can partner with you for the survey itself and also to implement any resulting efficiency improvements once your business has achieved ESOS compliance.

If you want to identify suitable energy-reduction projects that meet your investment criteria, we have an energy audit to suit your business, from in-depth investment grade to concise opportunity audits.

What is an EPD?

An Environmental Product Declaration, or EPD, is an independently verified document that provides transparent and comparable information about the environmental impacts of a product or service throughout its lifecycle. EPDs are based on a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and follow international standards such as ISO 14025 and EN 15804 for consistency and credibility.

Why are EPDs needed?

To provide transparency about product impacts to buyers or suppliers who want low-carbon goods.

To provide independent verification of manufacturer’s data

To improve efficiency in product manufacture and processes

To support green building certification including BREEAM and LEED

To highlight areas of higher environmental impact in product manufacture, which can then be addressed

Benefits of EPDs

Gain a complete picture of carbon consumption to help your business meet sustainability and/or ESG targets

Provide credibility for investors and customers

Although internationally recognised EPDs are yet to be universally adopted, certification delivers a competitive advantage for accredited businesses

EPDs last five years, giving your business documented evidence of environmental impact for a sustained period

Trident’s assistance was invaluable as we developed our first EPD. They helped us navigate the unfamiliar and develop a complete picture of our environmental impact. Our appointed contact Chris Wilson also assisted us in the use of the EPD when issued, providing advice and guidance on how to provide valuable comparisons with other products on the market by using industry recognised partners.”
