This Carbon Reduction Plan outlines our approach to measuring, managing, and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across our operations. It aligns with the UK government’s Net Zero Strategy and relevant frameworks, including PPN 06/21, demonstrating our dedication to environmental responsibility.

Our strategy focuses on:

Baseline Emissions Measurement – Understanding our current carbon footprint.
Reduction Targets – Setting ambitious yet achievable goals for emissions reduction.
Planned Actions – Implementing sustainable practices, including energy efficiency, renewable energy adoption, and supply chain engagement.
Progress Monitoring – Regularly tracking and reporting on our performance.

Through this plan, we aim to make meaningful contributions toward a low-carbon economy while continuing to deliver high-quality services to our stakeholders.

2. Scope

This Carbon Reduction Plan applies to all operations, assets, and activities of NETbuilder Digital Ltd, covering direct and indirect emissions in accordance with the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol and UK government guidance.

Organizational Boundaries

The plan encompasses:

Scope 1 Emissions – Direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, such as company vehicles and on-site fuel combustion.
Scope 2 Emissions – Indirect emissions from purchased electricity, heating, and cooling.
Scope 3 Emissions – Relevant indirect emissions from our supply chain, business travel, employee commuting, and waste management, where data is available.

Operational Coverage

The plan applies across:

Corporate Offices & Facilities – Energy consumption, waste, and resource usage.
Supply Chain & Procurement – Engagement with suppliers to encourage carbon reduction.
Transport & Logistics – Business travel, fleet operations, and delivery services.
Digital & IT Infrastructure – Energy efficiency in data centres, cloud services, and electronic waste management.

This scope ensures a comprehensive approach to carbon reduction, addressing both our direct and indirect environmental impacts.

3. Data

Commitment to achieving Net Zero

NETbuilder Digital Ltd are committed to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050.

Baseline Emissions Footprint

Baseline emissions are a record of the greenhouse gases that have been produced in the past and were produced prior to the introduction of any strategies to reduce emissions. Baseline emissions are the reference point against which emissions reduction can be measured.

The following data is based on NETbuilder Digital Ltd emissions.

Baseline Year: 2022
Baseline Year Emissions: 58.52 mtCO2e
EMISSIONS	TOTAL (mtCO2e)
Scope 1	32.21 mtCO2e
Scope 2	12.13 mtCO2e
Scope 3	14.18 mtCO2e Upstream transportation and distribution: 0 mtCO2e Waste generated in operations: 0.19 mtCO2e Business travel: 7.64 mtCO2e Employee commuting and WFH emissions: 6.23 mtCO2e Downstream transportation and distribution: 0 mtCO2e Other: 0.12 mtCO2e
Total Emissions	58.52 mtCO2e

4. Carbon Reduction Projects

Completed Carbon Reduction Initiatives

The following environmental management measures and projects have been completed or implemented since the 2022 baseline. The carbon emission reduction achieved by these schemes equate to 101,905.08tCO2e, a 33.13 % reduction against the 2022 baseline and the measures will be in effect when performing the contract.

Current Measures in Place

ISO compliant 14001 ISMS in place (environmental management register and considerations throughout 27001/9001 ISMS)

Committed SBTi target

Tree planting – one per new starter plus one per attendee to company events

Hybrid and remote opportunities taken where possible to reduce office space requirement
New London office that is more energy efficient and appropriately sized

In the future we hope to implement further measures such as:

Maintaining current standards: We are committed to sustaining the progress we’ve made by embedding best practices into our operations, ensuring consistency, and regularly reviewing performance to avoid regression.
Continuous improvement of measures: We will actively seek opportunities to enhance our approach through innovation, data-driven insights, and stakeholder feedback. This includes exploring new technologies, refining our processes, and setting more ambitious targets to drive long-term impact.
Enhancing energy efficiency across facilities and operations, where possible
Expanding carbon offsetting initiatives
Reducing water usage and improving waste management systems, where possible
Automating routine processes
Offering ongoing training on sustainability, ethics or diversity
Promoting internal awareness
Encouraging employee-led improvement initiatives
Publishing transparent progress reports
Engaging with industry groups and initiatives
