ABOUT US

the company is an SME founded in 2015 with a core mission of delivering decarbonisation. We help organisations who are committed to decarbonisation achieve meaningful and quantifiable carbon reductions quickly and efficiently.

Our software and product development team produce innovative and uniquely insightful digital tools, like Cadence and our decarbonisation tool, to successfully deliver our projects.

We work collaboratively across our consultancy team made up of transport, energy, sustainability, carbon accounting and applied data science specialists to provide integrated solutions to our clients. Our range of clients is extensive and includes forward-thinking local authorities like Oxfordshire County Council, sub-national transport bodies like England’s Economic Heartland and national organisations like Department of Energy Security & Net Zero (see our full list of projects here).

We have a series of emerging services lines (which are all underpinned by market areas), including the following focused within:

• Net Zero Strategies & Roadmaps (e.g. Area-based future decarbonisation pathways, green growth strategies)
• Net Zero Development (e.g. Transport evidence bases for Local Plans and infrastructure strategies)
• Sustainable Transport (e.g. Local cycle & walking infrastructure plans (LCWIPs), bus service planning and movement strategies)
• Net Zero Transport (e.g. Electric Vehicle charging strategies and net zero transport pathways)
• Transport Modelling (e.g. Strategic, freight, micro-simulation and active travel modelling)
• Heat & Retrofit (e.g. Heat pumps sizing, internet of things)
• Energy Planning (e.g. Local Areas Energy Plans)
• Energy Modelling (e.g. DNO capacity, building monitoring/benchmarking)
• Data Engineering (e.g. Future technology roadmaps)
• Carbon Accounting (e.g. Business decarbonisation, circular economy)
