Energy and Carbon Reporting

Effective Energy and Carbon Reporting reside at the core of successful Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) and Net Zero Carbon (NZC) Strategy.

Turning carbon data into measurable action

At Focus Green, we help organisations understand their Carbon Footprint, measure it accurately, and take meaningful steps to reduce it. Our Energy and Carbon consultancy focuses on data-driven analysis with practical, results-focused actions — from detailed energy audits and EPC improvements to complete NZC and ESG Strategies.

Ensuring your property assets remain future-ready and compliant

We work with Investment Management enterprises, Pension Funds and national organisations to ensure that building stock avoids becoming ‘toxic’ or ‘stranded’ and utilise UK regulatory frameworks to drive Net Zero principles throughout UK commercial building stock.

Transforming energy performance through expert assessment

Our experts assess your buildings, operations and energy consumption to identify clear, achievable pathways towards lower-carbon operations, performance cost reduction, full compliance with UK reporting frameworks and supply chain pressure to report NZC trajectories.

Net Zero Carbon Reporting

Our Net Zero Carbon Reporting service provides clear insight into your organisation’s energy use and emissions profile. Using national and international reporting standards such as SBTi and GHG Protocol, we establish baseline years, track annual progress, and identify the most cost-effective reduction measures across buildings, transport, waste and operations.

We also help quantify the benefits of renewable energy, energy procurement and efficiency investments to demonstrate measurable progress. We work with organisations from conception, baseline year setting, NZC target year conception though a yearly or quarterly steering meetings to ensure trajectory remains on target.

Our Net Zero Carbon Reports help you visualise and achieve your own targets to become a Net Zero Carbon organisation:

  • Establish baseline years and carbon footprints aligned with SBTi and GHG Protocol.
  • Identify and prioritise carbon reduction actions across your buildings, fleet, and operations.
  • Track progress and quantify the benefits of energy efficiency and renewable investments.
  • Provide clear, actionable steps to transition your organisation to Net Zero Carbon.

GHG Protocol

Understanding your full emissions profile is key to decarbonisation. Using the GHG Protocol, Focus Green measures and categorises your Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, including supply chain impacts. This data provides the foundation for effective management, target setting, and progress reporting across your organisation.

Accurate measurement is fundamental to successful decarbonisation:

  • Apply the GHG Protocol framework for complete Scope 1, 2 and 3 analysis.
  • Understand direct and indirect emissions across your operations and supply chain.
  • Develop data-driven management actions to reduce emissions and track performance.

CRREM Analysis

The Carbon Risk Real Estate Monitor (CRREM) framework helps identify climate-related risks within property portfolios. Focus Green’s consultants map CRREM decarbonisation pathways to highlight potential stranding assets and retrofit opportunities that enhance asset value and tenant demand.  We aim to avoid a toxic stock scenario and ensure assets are not disposed of due to a simple standing issue.

Manage your assets on a pathway to Net Zero Carbon-enabled facilities:

  • Map operational emissions against CRREM decarbonisation pathways.
  • Identify risks of stranding and opportunities for retrofit.
  • Utilise our NZC Portal to gain the right tenant data.

Embodied Carbon and Life Cycle Carbon Reports

Our Embodied and Whole Life Carbon Assessments quantify the environmental impact of materials and construction in line with RICS WLCA 2nd Edition and CIBSE TM65. Using the One Click LCA database, we analyse embodied emissions, compare materials, and help you make design and procurement decisions that lower lifecycle carbon.

Embodied and Whole Life Carbon assessments to RICS WLCA 2nd Edition and CIBSE TM65 standards:

  • Quantify embodied emissions across materials, construction, maintenance, and end-of-life stages.
  • Use the One Click LCA EPD database for accurate, auditable calculations.
  • Compare design options and procurement choices to reduce embodied impact.
  • Support ESG disclosures, planning submissions, and BREEAM / RICS compliance.
  • A key part of achieving the UK NZC in Buildings Standard.

Net Zero Consultancy

Our Net Zero Consultancy service helps organisations plan, implement, and monitor their journey to net zero. We define your strategies, establish governance frameworks, and set science-based targets across Scope 1, 2, and when ready record your Scope 3 emissions. We also advise on On-site renewable energy, EV installations, energy procurement and supplier engagement to embed sustainability at every level.

A comprehensive approach to achieving Net Zero across operations, assets and supply chains:

  • Define your Net Zero strategy and ESG governance framework.
  • Develop science-based targets and reduction pathways across Scope 1, 2 and 3.
  • Integrate renewable energy, fleet decarbonisation, energy procurement and supply-chain engagement.
  • Prepare audit-ready evidence for ESG disclosures, SECR, ESOS and sustainability reporting.
  • Advise on REGOs and if necessary, the sourcing and use of Voluntary Carbon Credits.
  • We partner with organisation long term to ensure consistent results and movement toward their and the Uks net Zero Carbon Aspirations and targets.

Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs)

Future modelling is key to every EPC undertaken.  EPC traditionally are a point in time survey, lodged and addressed almost on a race to the bottom basis.  At Focus Green we start with the As Built model, then on every EPC evaluate the best fit and realistic routes to A ratings.

Compliance drives change:

  • Embrace regulatory pressures while delivering EPCs with Net Zero principles.
  • Achieve A-rated portfolios through practical energy-efficiency improvements.
  • Use EPC tracking to transform your portfolio in line with tenant aspirations and targets.
  • Reveal opportunities for Net Zero transformation through EPC insights.
  • Focus on M&E solutions first.

Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) – Landlord Consultancy

With proposed tightening MEES regulations, landlords and investors must ensure assets achieve EPC B or better by 2030, in our experience landlords are targeting A/B ratings regardless of MEES Regulations.  The rental market is demanding energy efficient buildings depicted in the EPC ratings for potential tenants.  

Focus Green assesses portfolio performance, producing EPC Trackers, and develops bite sized improvement plans for HVAC, lighting, and insulation upgrades. We also advise on compliance exemptions and future-proofing strategies.

Ensure your portfolio remains compliant and future-proofed under evolving MEES regulations:

  • Assess EPC ratings across your estate, 80% of EPCs raised by Focus Green naturally increases in ratings.
  • Develop improvement plans to achieve EPC B or better by 2030
    (if implemented) - Current compliance is an E rating.
  • Provide Building Modelling for EPCs with recommendations on the most cost-effective route to A ratings.

Net Zero Carbon in Buildings Standard

As the UK Net Zero Carbon Buildings Standard (NZCBS) comes to market, understanding and visibility are essential. Focus Green supports Property Investment Management and Funds in aligning retrofit projects and on construction builds with NZCBS industry targets and limits for operational and embodied carbon. Our consultant’s model NZCBS aligned performance, develop strategic roadmaps, and guide you through energy modelling and reporting requirements.  Ensuring all buildings hit the targets and limits as they develop from now until 2050 and beyond.

We provide expert guidance in line with the UK Net Zero Carbon Buildings Standard pilot and technical framework:

  • One of the only Building Consultants to guide a UK Building through the Pilot Scheme successfully.  Contributing to the finite details of the target and limits.
  • Align your flagship buildings with the UK industry-agreed energy and carbon intensity targets.
  • Support design teams and asset managers with evidence-based recommendations and energy modelling.
  • Use our knowledge to integrate steps into each one of your retrofit projects.
  • We have a formally CPD accrediting session on the UK NZC in Buildings Standard we would be happy to run for you fund and asset managers.

Public Sector Decarbonisation Reports

Public sector bodies face unique pressures to decarbonise estates and meet net zero commitments. Focus Green provides Decarbonisation Reports for local authorities, primary and secondary schools, and colleges, aligned with Public Sector Decarbonisation and Energy audit standards. We model building energy flows, prioritise retrofit actions, and deliver realistic strategies.
