1.1.1 Reporting period

*

from 1.2023 to 12.2023

1.2 Describe your business activities

*
One Planet ltd is a small professional services firm with limited assets. Our emissions sources are Scope 1: vehicle emissions, Scope 2 electricity for heating, light and power and Scope 3: other goods and services purchased including business travel and IT equipment. We are targeting net zero emissions by 2023.

Full-time equivalent

1.5 Let us know if your company is a parent company or subsidiary

Commitment and Targets *

2.1 Net zero target year

*
2023

2.1.1 Base year

*
2020

2.2 Near-term target

*

100% of absolute total emission reduction from my base year by 2023

2.3 Provide any additional comments or context on your net zero and near term targets.

*
One Planet ltd is a small professional services firm with limited assets. Our emissions sources are Scope 1: zero - no ICE vehicle use and no gas boiler for heating. Scope 2 electricity for heating, light and power and Scope 3: other goods and services purchased including business travel and IT equipment. We are targeting net zero emissions by 2023. Office is now 100% renewal electricity tarif and scope 1 has now been removed through purchase of heatpump for water heating and space heating. We turned the gas off and now avoid all costs associated with scope 1 emissions. Scope 2 therefore contains most of our office based emissions through purchase of electricity. Scope 3 is significant with Business travel being the key emission source. We travel by public transport, trains and buses where possible, including internationally (normally Europe). We have a no fly unless can make net benefit through advice or service delivered policy. This has reduced to 1 flight in 3 years. Other emissions from electronic equipment are negligible. Offsetting using Gold Standard projects is used to target residual emissions and we pay for significantly more emissions than we produce

Own Emissions *

3.1 To reduce emissions in line with my commitment, my company has a plan and is taking action

*
Yes

Energy consumption

3.2 Total energy consumption

*
10000 kwh

3.3 Renewable energy

*
10000 kwh

Scope 1 emissions

3.4 Scope 1 emissions

*
0 metric tons CO2e

Scope 2 emissions

3.5 Location based scope 2 emissions

*
2.07 metric tons CO2e

3.6 Market based scope 2 emissions

*
0 metric tons CO2e

3.7 Describe your plans and actions taken to reduce scope 1 & 2 emissions.

*
100% renewable tarif, which is mainly used to charge EV, provides all electricity used to power laptops etc and to heat property using heat pump. I will also offset based on location emissions.

3.8 Describe the calculation methodology and comment on the data accuracy, including any tools/methods used to calculate.

*
Assumptions noted in my emissions inventory. Any assumptions tend to over estimate emissions rather than underestimate. Emissions factors updated to July 2024 UK government issued.

Value Chain Emissions (optional) *

Scope 3 emissions

4.1 Have you measured any of your scope 3 emissions?

*
Yes

4.1.1 Total scope 3 emissions

*
0.4 metric tons CO2e

Supply chain related - upstream emissions

Customer related - downstream emissions

4.1.17 Do you have a plan and are taking action to reduce emissions from your value chain?

*

Yes

Limit business travel especially through no fly except where net gain policy. Limit purchases of equipment and use second hand where appropriate.

4.2 Have you asked any of your suppliers to set a net zero target (either voluntarily or as a requirement)?

*
No

4.3 Have you communicated your commitment and actions to any of your customers?

*
Yes

4.4 Describe the calculation methodology and comment on the data accuracy and any tools used to calculate your scope 3 emissions.

*
UK gov emissions factors used with estimates or actual metered records.

Results, Challenges and Outlook *

7.1 Provide any additional comments or context on your annual results and progress from previous years.

*
I am a qualified sustainability assuror who also does GHG emissions verification from time to time. This year I have added a few more scope 3 categories and estimates. However, as my total emissions are so small relatively, gaining further accuracy is no worth it. My main impact by far is working with very high emission sectors helping them reduce their emissions.

7.2 Do you face any key challenges in reducing emissions?

*

Reducing scope 3 emissions,Reducing emissions from business travel,Slow societal and economic progress on climate action,Insufficient policies or government incentives

7.3 Has there been any third party validation of the data submitted in this report?

*

No
