Carbon Reduction Plan

Supplier name: Norbeck Limited

Publication date: 22/09/2022

Commitment to achieving Net Zero

Norbeck Limited is committed to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050

Baseline Emissions Footprint

Baseline emissions are a record of the greenhouse gases that have been produced in the past and were produced prior to the introduction of any strategies to reduce emissions. Baseline emissions are the reference point against which emissions reduction can be measured.

 

Baseline Year: 2021

Additional Details relating to the Baseline Emissions calculations.

This is Norbeck limited first base line assessment for a Carbon Replacement Plan, we intend to purchase electric vehicles and fit renewable energy solar panels to our premises in the future to reduce our carbon foot print

Baseline year emissions:

EMISSIONS

TOTAL 70.1 (tCO2e)

Scope 1

Direct emissions from the combustion of fuel in assets that a company operates, such as fuel emissions from company-owned diesel vehicles, and air-conditioning = 55 (tCO2e)

Scope 2

Indirect emissions from the generation of energy purchased from our utility provider, Octopus Energy, such as heating, cooling, steam, and electricity.

= 5.06 (tCO2e)

Scope 3

(Included Sources)

All indirect greenhouse gas emissions from purchased goods and services, capital goods, transport, distribution and business travel, calculated from our expenses.

= 10.04 (tCO2e)

Total Emissions

70.1 (tCO2e)

Emissions reduction targets

In order to continue our progress to achieving Net Zero, we have adopted the following carbon reduction targets.

We project that carbon emissions will decrease over the next 8 years to 35 tCO2e by 2030. This is a reduction of 50%.

Achieved by moving our fleet vehicles to electric and producing our own renewable electric for solar panels fitted to our premises.

 

Progress against these targets can be seen in the graph below:

 

Carbon Reduction Projects

Completed Carbon Reduction Initiatives

The following environmental management measures and projects have been completed or implemented since the 2021 baseline. The carbon emission reduction achieved by these schemes equate to 35.5 tCO2e, a 50%ge reduction against the 2021 baseline and the measures will be in effect when performing the contract.

In the future we hope to implement further measures such as:

Purchase when available within the market electric Vans.

Purchase electric cars for directors and project management team.

Implement PIR lighting systems with LED bulbs to limit use.

Affix renewable energy panels to roof of premises.

Continue to Audit via ISO9001 and ISO1400 which we are accredited with to monitor and review company carbon foot print/reduction plan.

Declaration and Sign Off

This Carbon Reduction Plan has been completed in accordance with PPN 06/21 and associated guidance and reporting standard for Carbon Reduction Plans.

Emissions have been reported and recorded in accordance with the published reporting standard for Carbon Reduction Plans and the GHG Reporting Protocol corporate standard and uses the appropriate Government emission conversion factors for greenhouse gas company reporting.

Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions have been reported in accordance with SECR requirements, and the required subset of Scope 3 emissions have been reported in accordance with the published reporting standard for Carbon Reduction Plans and the Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Standard.

This Carbon Reduction Plan has been reviewed and signed off by the board of directors (or equivalent management body).
