Who we work with

We work closely with the people responsible for turning sustainability goals into real-world outcomes.

Our day-to-day collaboration typically starts with:

Sustainability Managers – who need accurate, timely data to track progress and support ESG reporting
Energy Managers – focused on reducing consumption, improving efficiency, and managing cost
Procurement Teams – working to embed sustainability and risk considerations into supplier and contract decisions

But the impact of what we do extends well beyond these roles.

The C-suite—especially CEOs, CFOs, and Chief Sustainability Officers (CSOs)—increasingly rely on reliable energy and carbon data to make strategic decisions, manage risk, and meet stakeholder expectations.

Because sustainability is now a business-wide issue, our work also involves:

Finance and Accounting – ensuring carbon data aligns with financial disclosures and audit standards
Legal and Compliance – helping organisations meet regulatory requirements and manage exposure
PR and Marketing – supporting credible, data-backed sustainability communications

We act as a bridge—connecting technical, operational, and strategic teams so your organisation can make informed, aligned decisions on energy and carbon.
