Baseline validation
We stress-test existing inventories before building on them. Restating a target later is far more costly than getting the baseline right.
Net Zero Strategy
A credible strategy is a capital allocation document, not a statement of intent. We build targets on an audited baseline and sequence every intervention by cost per tonne so the plan survives budget scrutiny.
Deliverables
Every engagement produces documents your board, your auditor and your operations leads can each act on.
Scope of work
We stress-test existing inventories before building on them. Restating a target later is far more costly than getting the baseline right.
Near-term and net zero targets modelled against sector decarbonization pathways, with SBTi submission support where relevant.
Every lever costed per tonne abated, so efficiency, electrification, fuel switching and procurement can be compared honestly.
Interventions phased against capital cycles, asset replacement dates and grid decarbonization forecasts.
A defensible position on the residual emissions that cannot be abated, including quality criteria for any offsetting.
Accountability structures, KPIs and reporting lines so delivery does not stall after the strategy is approved.
Engagement
Interrogate existing data, close boundary gaps and agree the reference year.
Test target scenarios against sector pathways and your own asset constraints.
Build the MAC curve with your engineering and procurement teams in the room.
Prepare board papers, answer diligence questions and finalise the governance model.
Strategy framework
A credible climate strategy connects where you are today with where you need to go — and defines the pathway, investment, priorities and accountability required to get there.
Where are we today?
How far do we need to go?
By when?
Which interventions get us there?
What will it cost?
Who owns delivery?
Illustrative pathway
A transition pathway connects targets to sequenced interventions and measurable decision points.

Target & ambition
Target-setting should consider baseline emissions, growth, sector context, reduction potential, regulation, ambition and operational feasibility.

Climate strategy becomes more useful when it can be translated into timing, CAPEX, OPEX, cost-per-tonne context and expected emissions impact.
Governance & accountability
Governance should make strategic oversight, capital decisions, programme coordination and delivery ownership explicit.

Residual emissions
Residual emissions are the final layer of the strategy, not the first solution. Offsets should not substitute for decarbonisation.
Avoid unnecessary emissions.
Reduce operational emissions.
Switch technologies, fuels or inputs.
Manage remaining emissions appropriately.
What you receive
Each deliverable answers a different management question and retains a traceable link to the evidence beneath it.

From strategy to execution
Net Zero Strategy defines the targets, pathway, economics and governance. Delivery then continues through decarbonisation and managed execution.
Why BNZ Green
Strategy connects climate ambition to the commercial, operational and data realities that determine whether it can be delivered.
Connected to business priorities.
Cost, investment and abatement considered.
Built around actual constraints.
Grounded in measurable baselines.
Clear priorities and ownership.
Supported by climate data infrastructure.

Questions
No. Many clients align to the methodology without submitting for validation, which keeps the rigour while avoiding the process overhead. If you do want validation, we prepare the submission and manage the response cycle.
We set targets on the categories that are material and measurable, flag the rest with explicit uncertainty ranges, and build a phased plan to convert spend-based estimates to supplier-specific data over time.
Better to know now. We present the gap honestly, model what closing it would cost, and help you decide between additional capital, a revised timeline, or a restated target — before a stakeholder finds the gap for you.
We will review your current baseline and tell you candidly what a credible target looks like from where you stand.
