Net Zero Carbon Strategies
Looking to introduce a Net Zero Carbon Strategy but don't know where to start? Then Green Gain can help. Specialising in supporting SMEs (big and small) navigate the supply chain needs, our team of professionals can support you with a comprehensive verifiable baseline assessment of your current carbon footprint. We then work with you to develop a practical SMART-based action plan to reduce your carbon impact.
What is Net Zero?
The term 'net zero' means achieving a balance between the carbon emitted into the atmosphere, and the carbon removed from it. This balance – or net zero – will happen when the amount of carbon we add to the atmosphere is no more than the amount removed.
To reach net zero, emissions from homes, transport, agriculture and industry will need to be cut. In other words, these sectors will have to reduce the amount of carbon they put into the atmosphere.

How we helped Potter Space
Potter Space is a family-owned business with five business parks across the UK. Green Gain provided support to Potter Space to calculate its baseline environmental impact and to develop a strategy to reduce this. Potter Space required better data through which to evidence its journey on environmental impact reduction.
Green Gain’s support package provided Potter Space with:
- A baseline understanding of its environmental impacts, particularly in terms of its Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions
- A series of opportunities for reducing its environmental impacts
- A clear understanding of the commercial case for taking these opportunities forward
The environmental action plan provided quick wins to build momentum, from which more in-depth opportunities and investments can be taken forward to improve the efficiency of the business and move into the realms of potentially achieving 'net zero'.
