Their Story
Demonstrating a commitment to environmental stewardship, Phoenix Energy is driving its Carbon Reduction policy forward. The company has set clear and achievable targets to attain Net Zero goals for Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, including those embedded within their supply chain. Moving from spend based method in 2021 to Improved hybrid and specific methodologies in 2023, Phoenix Energy is leading the way in supplier engagement and accuracy of reporting.
The carbonfit software and platform play an important role in achieving near-term goals and the overarching Net Zero target. This comprehensive solution provides both expertise and technology to streamline data gathering, track progress, and implement effective carbon reduction strategies.
An initial carbon footprint assessment covered all company sites and operations, accounting for Scope 1, 2, and upstream Scope 3 emissions. In collaboration with Phoenix’s sustainability team, staff and suppliers were engaged to ensure clarity and cohesion on carbon reduction targets. Certification and verification processes were successfully completed, establishing the company's baseline carbon footprint.
The carbonfit platform offers a live online space to share data and progress. This transparency is crucial in fostering collaboration with key suppliers. Engineers and low-carbon consultants identified 15 improvement projects aimed at reducing energy and carbon across Phoenix's main office and operations.
Milestones and Progress
Phoenix has completed regulatory and mandatory carbon reporting, including SECR 2021 & 2022, ESOS Phase 2, and GRESB, securing the number 1 position in Europe. Through carbonfit, the company is already preparing for ESOS Phase 3, ensuring that monthly collation of energy and carbon data allows for quick response to advances in reporting for both internal and external stakeholders. All completed reports and disclosures are available to share directly from the platform, including carbon hotspots, real time tracking against historic data and the company’s Net Zero trajectory.
