Net Zero pathway underway for UK Office CompanY

THE OFFICE GROUP are now on a feasible and ambitious pathway to net zero, with short-term and long-term 1.5°C-aligned science-based targets. 

The Office Group (TOG) is one of the UK’s leading flexible office providers, providing workspaces, meetings rooms, and platforms for community and networking events to a wide range of clients across London, Leeds and Bristol.

The built environment represents almost 40% of global energy-related carbon emissions. The UK’s built environment is responsible for 25% of the UK’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It therefore is crucial that we tackle this sector’s emissions in order to limit global warming to a 1.5°C increase from pre-industrial temperatures and achieve net zero by 2050.

Challenge

seTTING THE STANDARD FOR DECARBONISATION

As an industry leader, TOG wanted to ensure they could continue to provide their customers with sustainable workspaces with a limited carbon impact. They needed to better understand their scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions, including the embodied carbon associated with the construction and refurbishment of their sites.

They wanted to go further than complying with mandatory regulations and identify suitable voluntary frameworks to support their decarbonisation efforts and sustainability reporting. TOG required support creating and implementing a net zero and offsetting strategy aligned with industry best practice.
