What is decarbonisation?
Decarbonisation is crucial for any business or organisation working towards achieving net zero carbon. It involves a fundamental shift in energy sources from fossil fuels to low-carbon alternatives such as solar power, biofuels, and hydrogen.
Why should businesses act?
One of the main concerns for businesses looking to decarbonise is the cost implications. Although it is carbon effective, it is not always cost effective. However, there is a growing urgency for businesses to act or face exposure to policy-driven increased energy, compliance, and operating costs.
Putting measures in place to decarbonise is not just essential to protect the planet, but it also enhances brand perception, customer preference and has long-term financial benefits.
With commitments and legislation being fast-tracked as a result of climate conferences such as COP26, more businesses are pledging commitments to achieving carbon neutrality, a large part of which includes decarbonisation.
