Scope 1 and 2: Making Transformation Economically Viable

Decarbonisation that pays off – from analysis to implementation.

Volatile energy prices, rising CO₂ costs, and growing requirements from supply chains and regulators are putting organisations under pressure to act. The decarbonisation of Scope 1 and 2 – i.e. direct emissions from own facilities and indirect emissions from purchased energy – offers one of the most effective levers for cost reduction, security of supply, and long-term competitiveness.

Yet implementation is complex: technology options must be evaluated, investments prioritised, and funding opportunities leveraged – while markets and regulatory frameworks continue to evolve. Whether modernising production facilities, transitioning process heat, or building renewable generation capacity: what matters is a transformation plan that connects climate targets, economic viability, and operational realities. As a strong partner, we guide you from feasibility studies through to monitoring.

Why You Should Act Now

Rising EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) prices, tightening requirements under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the EU Taxonomy, and volatile energy markets are increasing the pressure on Scope 1 and 2. At the same time, falling costs for renewable generation and new funding programmes are opening a window of opportunity for investments in process heat, green electricity, and facility modernisation. Organisations that develop a clear decarbonisation strategy for Scope 1 and 2 now will secure cost savings, market access, and independence from energy price shocks.

Your Benefits at a Glance

  • Cost and Risk Reduction: By reducing energy-related emissions, you lower your energy and CO₂ costs over the medium to long term and reduce dependencies on volatile prices and imported energy sources.
  • Competitiveness and Market Access: Decarbonised products and processes strengthen your position in tenders and supply chains where CO₂ transparency and thresholds are increasingly a prerequisite. This secures revenue and opens up new market opportunities.
  • Actionable Transformation with Measurable Results: A prioritised action plan focuses on the levers with the best ratio of impact to economic viability. This accelerates decisions, prevents misguided investments, and makes progress manageable through clear KPIs and milestones.
