Synergy Carbon Accounting

What is Carbon Accounting?

Carbon accounting is the measurement of an organisation’s Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. Emissions come from activities like fuel and electricity use, buying goods and services, waste, travelling and investing.

Why start Carbon Accounting?

Know where you stand, for your own peace of mind and to be ready when (not if) you’re asked for your emissions data.

• Prioritise actions you take to reduce emissions, as the world moves towards net zero

• Appeal to customers and talent who expect companies to understand their impact

• Meet compliance requirements as they continue to evolve

• Satisfy requests for this data from your key stakeholders

• Tell your sustainability story - with data to back it up, reducing greenwashing risks

Make Carbon Accounting an Extension of Financial Accounting

Carbon Accounting is accessible to every business when it becomes an extension of financial accounting, which is why we are best placed to support clients with this high impact work. We follow global standards and can leverage your existing accounting data to prepare your baseline emissions assessment, fill in data gaps and increase the accuracy of your footprint. We can set up the processes required to streamline data collection for carbon reporting moving forward.

How do we get started?

We’ll start by completing a baseline emissions assessment in line with global standards. Following a kick-off meeting, where we can answer any questions and explain the data we need to progress, we’ll commence the accounting process and share a summary report and visual dashboards with you.

We can then explore opportunities for emission reduction and build the business case for any changes or investments, including looking for financial and emissions savings.
