Benefits of a Net Zero Consultancy and Strategy Plan
Frequently Asked Questions about Net Zero
- Carbon neutral means offsetting the same amount of carbon you emit, often through credits, without necessarily reducing emissions first.
- Net zero requires deep emissions reductions across your operations and value chain, with minimal offsetting for unavoidable emissions. Net zero is more rigorous, long-term, and typically aligned with science-based targets.
Costs vary depending on your organisation’s size, complexity, and scope of services. As a guide:
- Initial carbon footprint assessment: £2,000 – £10,000
- Full net zero strategy and roadmap: £5,000 – £30,000+
- Larger businesses or multi-site organisations may require more comprehensive support, including stakeholder workshops, data modelling, and reporting compliance.
- Scope 1: Direct emissions from your owned or controlled sources (e.g. company vehicles, boilers).
- Scope 2: Indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, heating, or cooling.
- Scope 3: All other indirect emissions in your value chain (e.g. supplier emissions, employee travel, waste, product use). Scope 3 is often the largest and most complex, but essential for a complete net zero strategy.
Yes. Net zero planning should align with ESOS (energy audits) and SECR (carbon reporting). Data collected for ESOS and SECR can feed directly into your carbon baseline, while actions recommended through ESOS can be part of your decarbonisation plan. Integrating these efforts avoids duplication, improves consistency, and strengthens your overall sustainability reporting.
Timelines vary. Depending on their starting point and ambition, some companies aim for net zero by 2030, others by 2040–2050.
A typical phased approach might look like:
- 0–12 months: Carbon footprinting, goal setting, early wins
- 1–3 years: Efficiency improvements, renewable adoption
- 3–10+ years: Deeper operational and supply chain changes, long-term reductions
- Final stage: Offset any residual emissions to reach net zero
Yes, but only for emissions that cannot be eliminated through reduction measures. Credible net zero strategies prioritise cutting emissions at source first, then offsetting the small remainder through verified carbon removal offsets (e.g. reforestation, direct air capture). Avoid over-reliance on offsets, which is often seen as greenwashing unless paired with meaningful reductions.
