We aim to transition all company vehicles to electric and encourage all staff traveling to the office to use public transport, car share or take advantage of the cycle to work scheme we have just joined, electricity supplied to the office is generated from an onsite solar array which caters for all our needs including heating. Where possible all office waste is recycled via the waste management company we use.

Scope 1 Actions

own facilities

Yes

currently all power used is generated via an on site solar PV array, we continue to upgrade office equipment and lighting to low energy products. Any recyclable materials are separated from general waste to reduce the impact on landfill.

own vehicles

Yes

Currently we have two electric vehicles within the company and our aim is to transition to 100% electric over the next couple of years.

supply chain related (upstream)

purchased good and services

*

Yes

Supplier Engagement and Collaboration: Communicate sustainability goals to suppliers and encourage their commitment to emission reduction. Develop partnerships with suppliers to share best practices, provide support, and collaborate on sustainability initiatives.

capital goods

*

Yes

Supply Chain Mapping: Identify and map out the key suppliers in the upstream supply chain of capital goods. Prioritize suppliers based on their contribution to emissions and the criticality of their components. Explore alternatives to high-emission materials and promote the use of recycled or sustainable materials. Energy Efficiency: Encourage suppliers to adopt energy-efficient manufacturing processes for capital goods. Explore the use of renewable energy sources in the production of components and equipment.

fuel and energy related activities

*

Yes

Supply Chain Collaboration: Engage with suppliers to encourage the use of renewable energy sources in their operations. Collaborate with key suppliers to jointly work on reducing the carbon intensity of the energy used in the production of goods and services. Carbon Offsetting Programs: Invest in carbon offset programs to compensate for unavoidable emissions. This can include supporting projects that capture or reduce emissions elsewhere.

transportation and distribution (upstream)

*

Yes

Transition to Electric Vehicles: Supplier transition of vehicles to electric or hybrid alternatives to reduce emissions from transportation. Encourage suppliers to adopt low-emission transportation options.

waste in operation

*

Yes

Identify key sources and areas where waste reduction efforts can be most effective. Encourage the use of digital documentation and communication to minimize paper waste. Encourage suppliers to adopt sustainable and environmentally friendly packaging practices. Implement effective waste segregation and recycling programs within our facilities. Educate employees on proper waste disposal practices and the importance of waste reduction.

business travel

*

Yes

Set clear guidelines for minimizing unnecessary travel and promoting alternatives like Teams meetings. Encourage car sharing or the use of public transport when commuting. Implement a carbon offset program to compensate for unavoidable business travel emissions. Collaborate with reputable organizations that offer certified carbon offset projects.

employee commuting

*

Yes

Encourage car sharing or the use of public transport when commuting Staff now have access to cycle to work scheme.
