HOW CARBON REDUCE DRIVES DECARBONISATION

6 key steps to achieving carbon reduction

Achilles provides the tools to help measure all emissions under ISO 14064- 1 and WRI GHG protocol including vehicles, business travel, fuel and electricity, paper, and waste, with the option for companies to undertake full value chain of all fifteen sub-categories of Scope 3 emissions.

Achilles deploys its comprehensive science-based guidance, resources, tools, and templates to guide you through carbon reduction management planning and implementation to meet a 1.5 deg C target and achieve ISO14064-1 certification.

Achilles’ qualified independent ISO14066 GHG auditors will verify that the inventory is in accordance with international standards, ISO14064 part 1 and part 3 with the option for full ISO14064-1 Certification.

Companies have the option to offset unavoidable greenhouse gas emissions to become carbon neutral. Carbon credits allow individuals, organisations, and communities to balance the scales on the path to reduction, however, not all carbon offsets are considered equal. Achilles experts guide you through every step of carbon investment and offsetting to ensure that greenwash issues are avoided and the company’s Net Zero or Carbon reduction claims are robust and credible.

The Achilles process provides the independently verified data required to confidently report GHG assertions to comply with regulations and meet stakeholder disclosure requirements including SBTi, CDP and TCFD. The Achilles comprehensive Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory and Management Report specifies emissions inventory, management, and reduction plans and detailed GHG inventory. We also encourage companies to showcase their achievements with GHG audit or ISO 14064-1 certification.

The Achilles annual surveillance cycle supports a journey of continual carbon reduction to assist businesses to align with the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C – the highest ambition of the Paris Agreement.
