Carbon Consultants

This page collects together the Carbon related Consultancy Services Southwest Environmental offer to our clients. Most services relate to carbon reduction strategy whether that be for the construction of a new "thing" (products, buildings or services) or the optimisation of a a process (operational carbon emissions).

There is a very strong relationship between the cost of "thing" or a process and the amount of carbon it creates. Increasing efficiency of operational or capital systems will often reduce costs. In facts some simplified methods of carbon accounting rely on converting expenditure, to Carbon Emissions via the use of conversions factors, the relationship between expenditure and carbon footprint is inseparable.

Carbon Efficiency Plans

A relatively new concept introduced by WRAP. Carbon Efficiency Plans aim to reduce carbon emissions.

Carbon Neutrality

It is possible to achieve carbon neutrality under the guidelines of PAS 2060:2014.

Carbon Labels

Would you like to place a carbon label on your product that describes the amount of embodied carbon? We can help design and implement such a scheme.

Carbon Life Cycle Assessment

Carbon is produced at all stages of manufacture. SWEL can conduct Life Cycle Assessment to determine the amount of carbon produced by your process.

We use modeling programs, or simplistic accounting methods to analyze your product or service life cycle and provide insight.

Zero Carbon Reports

If you are planning a zero carbon development we can help write reports of this nature.

Energy Statements

 

Sustainability Measures via Carbon Savings

We can help you identify the most cost effective sustainability measures, and help save you a quantifiable amount of carbon.

Carbon Saving

 

Carbon in the Built Environment

Most of our carbon related work in the built environment relates to the Energy Statements, although we have also undertaken work to find low carbon building materials for a variety of projects and industries.

DER and TER Calculations

 

Carbon Capture and Storage

This is not proving to be a very popular concept, but one or two carbon capture and storage permits have been issued. We can help with these.

Carbon Capture and Storage Permits

 

Tree Planting for Offset

Trees are a tried and tested way to trap (sequester) carbon from the atmosphere. We work with established tree planters to provide verifiable tree planting offset in the UK and abroad.

Tree Planting Offset

 

SECR

SECR (Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting). Guidance released in March 2019 relating to a new streamlined approach to reporting. We can provide support with data collection and report writing.

Scope 1, 2 and 3 Emissions

Advice and reporting to help define Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 Emissions.

Hub: Carbon Consultancy and Emissions Management Resources

This resource hub provides technical guidance on carbon accounting, regulatory reporting, and the strategic implementation of net zero pathways. As the relationship between expenditure and carbon footprint becomes increasingly inseparable, Southwest Environmental Limited (SWEL) offers the modeling expertise required to optimize efficiency and reduce environmental impact.

Corporate Emissions Reporting and SECR

Mandatory and voluntary reporting frameworks require accurate data collection and expert analysis to satisfy UK regulatory bodies and stakeholders.

Carbon Neutrality and Lifecycle Assessment (LCA)

Achieving carbon neutrality at either an organizational or product level requires a rigorous, evidence-based approach to quantifying embodied carbon.

Sequestration, Offsets, and Permitting

For emissions that cannot be eliminated through operational efficiency alone, we provide technical support for sequestration and carbon management permits.

Technical Authority for Decarbonization

Our carbon hub integrates technical evidence from environmental engineering and sustainability planning to support your project[cite: 13, 23]. By linking carbon strategies with Sustainability Statements and Environmental Management Systems (EMS), we provide a holistic route to consent and compliance[cite: 33, 34]. With over 15 years of industry experience and 900+ projects delivered across the UK, SWEL offers the professional accreditation (IES/IAQM) and technical authority required to secure your organization's sustainable future[cite: 21, 26, 35].
