Calculate, report and reduce carbon emissions

Following the NHSEI announcement that, from 2030 onwards, the NHS will not purchase any good or supplies from companies that haven’t published their own Net Zero target (that aligns to NHS targets), we wanted to respond early and provide our suppliers with support and tools to measure, report and reduce their impact.

The Smart Carbon platform is a comprehensive tool that allows us to confidently measure and report our full ‘NHS carbon footprint plus’ across all scopes of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol. The team are leaders in the field and have helped us to directly engage with our supply chain to support each other with our shared goal of a decarbonised healthcare supply chain by 2040.

The support from the team at SmartCarbon has been exceptional! They are very knowledgeable, responsive and have been supportive in guiding us to simplify a project that is quite overwhelming when you get started. The SmartCarbon Calculator is a really easy and useful tool to support our carbon reporting requirements, and is adaptable to organisational and project structures. The supporting training and consultancy packages have helped to progress our commitment to reducing our impact and we are looking forward to a continued working relationship as our strategy evolves to match our ambition to do our bit to tackle the Climate Emergency.

SmartCarbon helped us to drive our Net Zero strategy. The SmartCarbon calculator is a user-friendly tool that has allowed us to measure our carbon footprint and create a set of objectives to reduce our emissions. The SmartCarbon staff are passionate about this and it has had a great impact on us, as we have engaged from day one.

Working with SmartCarbon has enabled a more robust and accurate analysis of our carbon emissions. This paired with the exceptional ongoing support from the dedicated consultant has created a smooth, seamless and efficient journey which we highly recommend.

Anna-Lisa Mills delivered an accessible yet thought provoking presentation on the reality of climate change to our stakeholder Forum which was focussed on the issue. The presentation was visually stimulating and presented with sincerity to a mixed audience of climate specialists and people from the cultural sector and it was appreciated and valued by all of the audience. It was hard-hitting in presenting the facts and demanded a response from the people there and that was exactly what we wanted and helped set the tone, urgency and enthusiasm for the day ahead. And, at the end of the day, she helped pull together the thoughts and actions arising out of the forum. If you are looking for a speaker to challenge and empower your group, Anna-Lisa Mills will do just that! Many thanks.

Anna-Lisa combines the authority that flows from her training with Al Gore and knowledge of the already inevitable global consequences of our changed climate with a compassionate awareness of the probable human consequences of that knowledge for those who come to understand the depth and immediacy of the problems we face. Somehow, however, she leaves behind a sense of hope and the belief that there are still actions we can take to make a difference. Extraordinary!

SmartCarbon Ltd took NHS BT through a comprehensive data collection, calculation and reporting process that was both aligned to the wider NHS Net Zero Plan and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol.  This involved processing massive quantities of complex data and utilising the SmartCarbon Calculator platform to produce the desired reports in a format that enabled the Organisation to effectively communicate carbon performance in a way that is accessible to all stakeholders, from Donor to Patient, as we continue to improve and save lives in a Sustainable way.

The SmartCarbon Calculator is a simple and time-saving platform that supports our greenhouse gas accounting and carbon reporting requirements. The site is easy to use and has adapted well over the years as our organisational structure has evolved.  Our external verifier was very happy with the audit trail available on the tool and the increased confidence it provides in the results incorporated into our annual report and accounts.

The Climate Reality check presentation was superb! It raised all the right challenges but in a way that was a lot more accessible than I’ve seen elsewhere.

The use of the SmartCarbon Calculator has been helpful in the calculation of our baseline carbon footprint in line with the SECR regulations. The downloadable SECR compliant report has given us increased confidence in our approach. The interactive graphs have helped us understand our data and focus our efforts in reducing our carbon footprint.

The SmartCarbon Calculator is a really helpful tool, which has enabled us to have increased confidence in the accuracy of our carbon footprint.  The consultancy support has also enabled us to achieve a much more accurate analysis of our carbon emissions, as we seek to measure and manage down our carbon impact.

This course was excellent, well-structured and I have learnt a lot about all the wider aspects of carbon management which will be invaluable to my footprinting work. THANK YOU!

Fantastic days’ training on Carbon Emissions. The information provided will really support me in my role. I would highly recommend to anyone working in the sustainability field.

A very interesting and informative day, presented by a very knowledgeable and enthusiastic trainer. That coupled with some excellent networking opportunities, time very well spent.
