Carbon Accounting
The reduction in carbon emissions delivered by a Low Carbon KEEP project can be achieved through a reduction the businesses own emissions, or those of their customers, or their supply chain.
The following tools may be useful when developing the 'low carbon' aspects of your application form.
DEFRA's greenhouse gas (GHG) conversion factors help businesses convert existing data sources (e.g. utility bills, car mileage, refrigeration and fuel consumption) into CO2 equivalent emissions by applying relevant conversion factors (e.g. calorific values, emission factors, oxidation factors). They have also published guidance for businesses and organisations on how to measure and report their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
CCaLC have developed a life cycle methodology and decision-support tools for calculating and reducing the carbon footprints of different industrial sectors along complete supply chains.
