Commitment and Targets *

2.1 Net zero target year

*
2050

2.1.1 Base year

*
2021

2.2 Near-term target

*

42% of absolute scope 1+2 emission reduction from my base year by 2021

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

*
Auger Site Investigations Limited commits to reduce scope 1 and scope 2 GHG emissions 42% by 2030 from a 2021 base year, and to measure and reduce its scope 3 emissions. Auger Site Investigations Limited commits to reduce scope 1+2+3 emissions 95% by 2050 from a 2021 base year. This target was approved using a streamlined target validation route exclusive to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). https://sciencebasedtargets.org/faqs-for-smes

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

*
94517.5 kwh

3.3 Renewable energy

*
46703.5 kwh

Scope 1 emissions

3.4 Scope 1 emissions

*
1126 metric tons CO2e

Scope 2 emissions

3.5 Location based scope 2 emissions

*
19.59 metric tons CO2e

3.6 Market based scope 2 emissions

*
10.63 metric tons CO2e

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

*
We have switched to a 100 percent renewable tariff and will continue to use our solar panels to ensure our scope 2 remains as low as possible. We will continue to introduce electric vans to our fleet as well as planning our routes more efficiently to reduce mileage.

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

*
We use a 3rd party called Normative to calculate our emissions. The Normative methodology is built on a proprietary implementation of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and a deep database of emissions factors. Based in the Greenhouse Gas Protocol-recommended hybrid methodology, Normative’s engine can use both transaction data and activity data in its emissions calculations, ensuring comprehensive coverage of all of a business’s sources of emissions. To achieve the most accurate calculations possible, Normative’s carbon accounting engine selects the best approach depending on the type of data provided by a business. The engine then uses intelligent automation to process the business data. This includes mapping the data to the Normative taxonomy – an internal classification system – as well as converting units and currencies where needed. Finally, the engine combines the processed data with Normative’s large database of scientifically-vetted emissions factors to produce emissions calculations across its operations (scope 1), energy usage (scope 2), and value chain (scope 3).
