Carbon Report 2024

Granby’s Commitment to Net Zero Emissions by 2050
Carbon Report 2024: Granby is dedicated to achieving net zero emissions by 2050, with an ambitious interim goal of reducing output emissions by 40% by the end of 2025. As of 2024, we have already achieved a 31% decrease in carbon dioxide emissions, reducing from 131.06 tonnes in 2021 to 90.49 tonnes. This progress highlights our commitment and puts us well on track to meet our 40% reduction target.
Understanding Our Carbon Footprint
Our carbon footprint is calculated by comparing the total minutes worked throughout the year against our carbon output. In 2024, the standardised figure was 1.820, showing a 7% decrease from 2023 and a 31% decrease from 2021. This metric helps us understand and manage our emissions more effectively.
2024 Summary
Total weight of carbon produced by Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions comes to 90.492kg or 90.49 Tonnes.
Breakdown of Emissions
Scope 1: Direct Emission Sources
- Fuel Combustion (Gas)
- Company Vehicles Fuel
- Fork Lift Trucks
Scope 2: Indirect Emission Sources
- Purchased Electricity for Business Use
Scope 3: Supply Chain Emission Sources
- Our carrier partners are working towards providing meaningful Scope 3 statistics, and we aim to supply these metrics soon.
Baseline Emissions
Baseline emissions are a record of the greenhouse gases that have been produced in the past and were produced prior to the introduction of any strategies to reduce emissions. Baseline emissions are the reference point against which emissions reduction can be measured.
Emissions | 2021 | 2022 | 2023 | 2024 |
| Scope 1 | 53,141 kg | 42,989 kg | 42,816 kg | 47,185 kg |
| Scope 2 | 77,919 kg | 54,646 kg | 52,480 kg | 43,307 kg |
| Scope 3 | n/a* | n/a* | n/a* | n/a* |
Total Emissions | 131,060 kg | 97,635 kg | 95,296 kg | 90,492 kg |
* No Scope 3 reporting due to inability of parcel carriers to accurately produce figures per parcel.
Future Measures
To further reduce emissions, we plan to:
- Improve building insulation by replacing key roof areas
- Install automatic shutter doors on warehouses
- Provide detailed Scope 3 figures related to emissions from dispatching consignments across the country
Granby remains committed to sustainability and is continuously exploring innovative ways to reduce our environmental impact.
