Make sure CO2 accounting adds up

新的碳报告立法是变革的催化剂,还是高管层的合规负担?

This was the hot topic at Mitie’s recent Carbon Disclosure Summit, 欢迎来自公共和私营部门组织的领导人来到我们位于碎片大厦的总部.

答案是响亮而明确的——碳排放报告应该成为积极变革的催化剂.

And with the following event summary and insights, you can make sure this is the case at your organisation.

The rate of change in today’s world will never be so slow again.

这就是科技作者, expert and founding 《澳博官方网站》英国总编辑, 大卫·罗文, explains why he believes new carbon reporting legislation presents a massive opportunity.

Because as organisations dig into their CO2 emissions and find untapped opportunities, 技术创新步伐的加快意味着他们可以有效地抓住这些出现的机会.

指数的进步

For proof David told the audience of the Carbon Disclosure Summit to look no further than the falling cost of solar power.

He said: “Almost 50 years ago the cost of one watt generated via solar PV was $100. Skip forward to today and the cost is pretty much free.”

类似的技术进步伴随着成本的指数级下降,在 DNA测序.

So, 大卫鼓励各组织将碳排放报告纳入轨道,并利用未来技术提供的有利可图的机会.

He said: “What’s happening in science, renewable 能源 and AI will only get faster… All the scientific ideas that haven’t yet become trillion dollar opportunities; some of them are going to be… Embrace it and stay optimistic.”

不是如果,而是如何?

答:峰会期间&A, 与会者明确表示,他们的组织希望抓住带来环境和经济效益的机会, but were often unsure how to do so.

在欢迎致辞中, Mitie首席执行官, 菲尔·宾利, 已披露的研究支持了这一点——许多领导人都感到沮丧,并在努力合理地解释碳排放.

菲尔说:“这里没有人能落后……78%的高管和环境、社会和治理领导者在回应我们的研究时说,他们目前的环境、社会和治理报告安排效率低下,负担沉重。.”*

碳报告的3c

Mitie’s Head of Data and Technology, 凯瑟琳·惠特利, further explored the circumstances faced by many organisations.

Three common themes emerged during her presentation.

挑战

Catherine said: “The first challenge is data and efficiency. 碳会计和报告是资源密集型的,在我们开始产生洞察力之前,需要处理来自不同来源和格式的大量数据.

“其次,技能短缺. 我们面临着整体技能和资源短缺,77%的人在这方面挣扎, but also skills gaps in particular areas, especially around data and insight.

“第三, 改变立法, 在我们的调查中,超过一半的人认为立法将在未来三年变得更加严格, they are concerned about how they can keep up.”

改变

掌握新的立法至关重要,凯瑟琳总结了主要的变化:

The number of organisations required to report carbon emissions is increasing.

碳排放报告所需的信息正变得越来越详细——在某些情况下,组织将不得不说明它们是如何减少排放的.

There is a confusing reporting landscape to navigate, with different bodies having different expectations.

凯瑟琳说:“在这个世界上,你必须提供所有这些不同的信息来服从不同的机构, 您需要能够有效地使用您的数据,并以不同的方式切割数据以满足不同的报告需求.”

复杂性

凯瑟琳接着解释了如何通过对第3类排放进行核算来提高合规要求.

她说:“第3类排放是由企业无法脱离的价值链造成的. These include suppliers, business travel, 浪费 and employee commuting. 现在, Mitie’s carbon footprint is around 22,000 tonnes for scope 1 and 2, 但300年,000 tonnes for scope 3 – that’s 13 times more. 为了解决这个问题,它意味着与Mitie供应链上成千上万的供应商合作……我们看到立法要求在第3范围内不断增加,这也是最大的机会所在.”

在他的结束语中, Mitie’s Director of Plan Zero Consulting, 亚历克斯·阿维拉, emphasised the importance of a strategic but positive approach.

He said: “The time we are in is critical. 这很紧迫,但现在实施一项成功的碳报告战略还为时不晚. It shouldn’t be seen as a burden – it’s an opportunity.”
