Decarbonisation Plan
In which region do you need this solution?
Decarbonisation Plan
We support you in developing a company decarbonisation plan, with clear objectives and concrete actions to reduce emissions.
- Define a credible roadmap for emissions reduction
- Respond to investors, clients and ESG ratings with a structured plan
- Prepare the company for future pathways to Net Zero and SBTi
Corporate decarbonisation plan consulting
The corporate decarbonisation plan is a strategic tool that allows businesses to plan the progressive reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, defining objectives, actions, investments, and timelines.
It can integrate with diverse needs: reporting according to CSRD, improving ESG ratings, investor requests such as Private Equity funds and banks, managing customer expectations, or preparing for future validation by SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative).
Ollum offers consulting services for decarbonisation plans and supports companies in constructing a concrete climate strategy, personalised and oriented towards real reduction in emissions. The support of a consultant for CO2 emission reduction helps the company identify intervention priorities and build a credible roadmap. In particular, we offer assistance in the following areas:
- calculation of the corporate carbon footprint and identification of the Emissive hotspots
- technical and economic evaluation of possible reduction measures
- definition of the Decarbonisation roadmap
- support in integrating the plan with ESG strategy and future goals
The decarbonisation plan is increasingly relevant today for well-structured SMEs, large companies, industrial groups, and companies integrated into international supply chains, especially when it is necessary to demonstrate a credible and measurable climate strategy.
What are the benefits of a corporate emissions reduction plan?
Developing a corporate decarbonisation plan can bring several benefits to businesses, including:
Define a concrete climate strategy
A decarbonisation plan allows environmental objectives to be transformed into a structured pathway, with clear priorities, concrete actions and results that can be monitored over time. Support from a CO2 reduction consultant helps the company define a realistic strategy that is consistent with its operational context.
Respond to market and investor demands
Increasingly, clients, banks, funds, and stakeholders are asking companies for an emissions reduction strategy. Having a plan helps to respond more robustly to these expectations.
Preparing the company for future developments
The decarbonisation plan provides a useful basis for strengthening ESG reporting, improving competitive positioning and setting future pathways towards Net Zero or SBTi validation.
What steps does our consultation for the decarbonisation plan involve?
Let’s now look at the steps involved in our support for defining a Company CO2 emissions reduction plan:
1. Calculating the Carbon Footprint
To draw up a decarbonisation plan, the first step is the calculation of the corporate carbon footprint. At this stage, a CO2 emissions reduction consultant accurately quantifies the direct and indirect emissions from the organisation, so as to identify the emission hotspots requiring intervention. In some specific cases, it may also be useful to integrate an energy audit.
2. Technological feasibility
Let’s identify the most suitable solutions for decarbonising business activities, assessing their reliability, maturity, and consistency with the operational context. Possible actions may include energy efficiency, renewable sources, process electrification, circular economy, green hydrogen, or CO2 capture.
3. Economic feasibility
We will assess the investments required to implement the identified measures and support the company in short, medium, and long-term action planning, taking into account the economic sustainability of the path.
4. Planning of emission reduction actions
Let’s develop an operational roadmap with objectives, timelines and emission reduction actions, built on the company’s characteristics and consistent with its ESG and industrial objectives. In some cases, this path may also form the basis for a future commitment to the Science Based Targets initiative.
Towards real emission reductions
At Ollum, we believe that decarbonisation should be based first and foremost on effective and substantial reduction of CO2 emissions. This is why we develop plans focused on intervening in the company’s actual emission sources, with concrete and measurable actions.
We are aligned with the SBTi approach, which prioritises the direct reduction of emissions over compensatory measures that do not address the problem at its source. We believe, in fact, that climate change is, first and foremost, an industrial and energy challenge, to be tackled with structured and coherent choices in line with a real transition to Net Zero.
Net Zero and decarbonisation consulting: where to start
Not all companies that develop a decarbonisation plan choose to validate their targets according to SBTi right from the start.
For many businesses, the first step is to define a concrete emissions reduction roadmap, useful for responding to ESG reporting, market, investor, or strategy needs. In a next phase, this pathway can evolve towards more structured Net Zero goals, also through a pathway of Net Zero consulting and, where relevant, towards the target validation according to international standards such as SBTi.
