Complying with Carbon Regulations: A Chance to Drive Commercial Growth and Achieve CSR Goals

There have been drastic changes to company goals over the years. Focus is no longer just on productivity as it pertains to economic and business performance but also on achieving ESG and sustainable goals. Carbon reporting is now becoming a major demand for shareholders and customers as there is an interest to see how businesses are performing commercially and environmentally.

Finding the right balance between commercial and carbon goals can be a challenge for businesses. There is the desire to reduce energy costs and carbon emissions without incurring greater costs. Another challenge is the lack of skill that can efficiently bridge the gap and ensure that both commercial and carbon targets are met. The false notion that one target must be sacrificed over another limits innovation and mitigation.

With the government pushing for a robust legal and regulatory framework to meet national and global carbon targets, businesses will need to take responsibility to comply with these changes. Rather than viewing this as a forced agenda it is possible to take advantage of the situation to drive commercial growth, pursue carbon targets, reduce energy costs, and satisfy companies CSR plans.

A Sustainable Solution

ETS has a sustainable solution to energy management and carbon emission reductions:

  • Policy and planning – These are strategies that filter across the different organizational teams that impact energy. It also covers governance and compliance to meet company targets. The organization can benefit from government investments channeled towards carbon reduction and green technology. This means that company finances can be utilized in other areas where needed.
  • Data and diagnostics – Having the right data is a start to driving efficiency as inefficiencies and saving opportunities can be easily identified. A detailed analysis of energy use and costs is no longer done in isolation but can be compared to commercial key performance indicators such as occupancy, sales, and revenue.
  • Optimization and implementation – Implementation and control of suggested solutions following data diagnostics can ensure that systems can be put in place to improve performance. Optimization creates real-time benefits for the business, clients and stakeholders as information can be readily available.
  • Monitoring, measurement, and analytics – Insight through reoccurring data can be used to monitor, measure, and propose adjustments to the energy coming in and out of the business. This is done to international performance measurement & verification standards (IPMVP).
  • Audit and Iteration – Continual improvement to policy, data, optimization, and performance to achieve a recognizable, sustainable, and auditable energy management system.

Meeting Business Needs with a Carbon Conscious Approach. We Manage Energy Better

As the UK sets out to achieve Net-Zero carbon by 2050, there is a paradigm for businesses that is evolving. According to the BEIS, latest figures (2020) show that the business sector is responsible for 18% of UK carbon emissions, serving as the third largest emitters. On the other hand, there is an ulterior motive for most businesses to maximize profits and satisfy shareholders; therefore, businesses invest little effort into reducing carbon emissions. Fortunately, deploying the correct approach towards meeting business needs will not only reap environmental and financial benefits, but shed a positive light to the business. 

The benefits of carbon conscious energy management

To highlight a few, these are the benefits of meeting business needs with a carbon conscious strategy: 

  • With a carbon conscious approach, a business can invest in on-site renewable technologies which can lead to increasing energy efficiency, reducing energy costs and carbon footprint. 
  • On a complex level, corporate reporting such as SECR can provide insight into the carbon emission levels of each specific activity across the business which is useful for long-term strategies and decision-making. 
  • Carbon conscious practices can also create a sustainable culture which can bring people a lot closer and enable employees to work efficiently. 

These benefits are examples that are irrefutable to have, however it is upon business to manifest this approach and sustain it for a long time. The government is enforcing stringent laws and regulations to ensure that we all meet the national and global carbon targets; therefore, businesses will have to comply. There is no escape from this as it is inevitable, however voluntarily approaching business needs with a carbon conscious can accelerate commercial growth, increase energy efficiency and productivity, reduce carbon emissions and energy costs, and meet business targets favourably. 

How can ETS help?

At ETS, we provide a range of energy management services that can guide your business through the journey of adapting into a carbon conscious business and help you progress towards a Net-Zero pathway. With many factors to consider, a business without profound knowledge of the area and no clear sense of direction can be easily overwhelming. Our teams will help your business every step of the way to ensure that you are able to witness real, effective, and positive change. Our team of Energy Managers will retrieve all the necessary performance data for our Consulting Engineers to design a suite of bespoke initiatives and opportunities to reduce energy usage, carbon emissions and costs. These are exciting times, and our services will ensure that your business is at the forefront of the sector.

THE NET- ZERO FUTURE

Net Zero is becoming an increasingly popular concept as individuals and organizations are seeking ways to emit less carbon than they intake, thereby reducing their carbon footprint. This helps to ensure that national carbon emission reduction targets of 68% and 78% by 2030 and 2035 respectively, compared to 1990 levels, are met.

By 2030 all new buildings will be required to operate at net zero to meet climate change targets and the UK government has introduced the Future Building standards which offer guidance on high efficiency energy and ventilation in non-domestic buildings and homes. The new regulations target a 30% carbon emission reduction in new buildings and a 27% reduction in existing buildings.  It is left for organizations to comply with these standards and doing so is smart energy management. This does not only benefit the environment but can benefit businesses by reducing energy inefficiencies and costs. It could also be a competitive advantage when compared with companies that have no low carbon targets or net-zero strategies in place.

The pathway to achieving Net-zero

The pathway to achieving net-zero carbon is by identifying your carbon footprint and reducing your energy use. This must be regularly reported and verified, and your existing system reviewed at least every 5 years to ensure you are on track to meeting your targets and strengthen commitment. 

According to the Chartered Institute of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE) achieving net-zero operational carbon in your building can be done by accessing, monitoring, verifying, and reducing the embodied carbon. This is the whole life-cycle carbon (WLC) emission resulting from the materials, construction, and the use of a building over its entire life, including its demolition and disposal. It provides a robust picture of the building’s impact on the environment.

Energy inputs and outputs from power systems also need to be accessed, monitored and verified. Organizations can take advantage of the existing framework such as the Energy Saving Opportunity Scheme if available as a plan to achieve net-zero.

Using low carbon energy supply for heating and hot water and maximizing the use of on-site renewable or finding the zero-carbon balance by investing in additional renewable energy capacity off-site is another step to reducing you’re your carbon footprint.

Lastly, continual measurement and verification of data and performance need to be ensured for a recognizable, sustainable & auditable energy management system.  Policies and strategies need to be reviewed to ensure that the energy management system is meeting regulatory standar

ETS helping you along the path

At ETS, we can guide you along the pathway to achieving your low carbon or net-zero targets by accessing, monitoring, verifying and reducing your energy use and hence your carbon emissions and we have a smart energy management process in place to do this. We have the team and resources to audit your energy management systems to meet compliance standards.

Energy. Money. Carbon. Being Smart Saves Them All.

Since the emergence of the Paris Agreement, climate action has posed a complex challenge for many businesses to recognize and continues to do so. Primarily, businesses are financially motivated and are apprehensive of being fully committed towards climate action; in fear that it would incur greater costs and lead to lower dividends. However, there are strategies that exist to ensure that a business can perpetually and economically grow, whilst helping to protect the environment. In relation to energy management, these are the following steps to optimizing and monitoring energy consumption of an asset:

  1. Identifying the sources of energy consumption within the asset
  2. Collating all relevant utility bills
  3. Analyzing the consumption data
  4. Identifying opportunities to reduce energy consumption and energy costs
  5. Tracking the progress of the energy profile

Fortunately reducing energy consumption, saving costs, and mitigating carbon emissions are interlinked challenges that can be resolved simultaneously by implementing smart energy management.

Over time, smart technologies and solutions have evolved tremendously and are disrupting traditional methods that are used to manage energy consumption. The ‘smart’ emphasizes the computer-based system used to monitor, control, optimize and maintain operational performances of an asset. This differentiates from other traditional and obsolete methods as it is less time-consuming and provides remote access to accurate data insight and control of an asset. Unequivocally, it can optimize operational efficiency and environmental performance, reduce energy consumption and energy costs, and mitigate carbon emissions.

These are examples of smart energy management solutions:

  • Building Management Systems (BMS) – A computer-based control system with IoT-enabled, which allows remote access to a fully managed, connected building. This optimizes real-time data insight and control over electrical-consuming equipment.
  • Internal air quality – With the integration of BMS, one can monitor and assess the internal conditions of a facility such as the levels of , VOCs and particulates. This can not only find opportunities to reduce these pollutants but also mitigate public health risk.

Ultimately, smart energy management serves as an opportunity for businesses to accurately determine insight of an asset’s energy profile and consumption data. This would ensure businesses not only to have the ability to reduce energy consumption but to make well-informed decisions that can sustain long-term growth, both financially and environmentally.
