A council's emissions are spread across hundreds of sites and services
A council's emissions are scattered across pools, libraries, a works fleet and, very often, a landfill that keeps emitting for years. The data lives in dozens of systems, and the report has to stand up to public scrutiny. The analyst consolidates it into one number a resident or auditor could follow back to its source.
You stay the reviewer
Your systems in, a defensible public number out
The inputs are spread across dozens of systems: energy invoices for many sites, fleet fuel cards, weighbridge tonnages and procurement spend. The analyst brings them onto one basis, matches each to the right factor, and produces a number that holds up to public scrutiny and audit.

How it works
Drop in energy invoices, fleet fuel, weighbridge tonnages and procurement spend, the analyst calculates each scope with matched factors, and you report per facility, per directorate or consolidated across the organisation.

Facilities and fleet
Pools, libraries, depots and street lighting draw power, and the works fleet burns diesel. CO2 Lab reads energy and fuel per site and vehicle, applies the current NGA factors, and reports location-based and market-based electricity side by side.

Scope 1 · Landfill gas
Council landfill
A council that runs a landfill carries years of methane from waste already tipped. CO2 Lab applies the NGER landfill gas method to your weighbridge tonnages, converts methane at a global warming potential of 28, nets off capture and flaring, and flags the line as modelled rather than measured.
Scope 3 · Category 1 & 2
Procurement and works
Contracted services, road and infrastructure works, and goods add up across a large organisation. CO2 Lab starts from procurement spend with spend-based factors, swaps in supplier data as it arrives, and labels every line so the estimate is transparent.
