Carbon Reduction Plan 2026

Commitment to achieving Net Zero

Forfusion Ltd is committed to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050 for its UK operations.

Baseline Emissions Footprint

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.

Baseline Year: 2021

Additional details relating to the Baseline Emissions calculations.

Forfusion Ltd uses an operational-control consolidation approach. The baseline covers the reporting period from 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2021 and is the first year of calculation. The baseline inventory was prepared in accordance with the GHG Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard and ISO 14064-1:2018, using UK Government emission conversion factors. Included Scope 3 sources are upstream transportation and distribution, waste generated in operations, business travel, employee commuting and downstream transportation and distribution, together with homeworking energy, hotel stays and events, and water use. The 2021 baseline reflects a period affected by COVID-19 restrictions, during which business travel and associated activities were substantially lower than under normal operating conditions. In addition, Forfusion has grown significantly since 2021. Consequently, the organisation is considering adopting a more representative baseline year to support meaningful comparison of emissions performance and provide an appropriate basis for measuring progress towards Net Zero by 2050.

The 2025 inventory covers the reporting period from 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2025 using the operational-control approach. Scope 3 includes upstream transportation and distribution, waste generated in operations, business travel, employee commuting and downstream transportation and distribution, as well as homeworking energy, hotel and event activities, water use, transmission and distribution losses and well-to-tank emissions.

Emissions reduction targets

In order to continue our progress to achieving Net Zero, we have adopted the following carbon reduction targets.

We project that absolute carbon emissions will decrease to 40.84 tCO2e by 2030. This is a 50% reduction from the 2021 baseline of 81.67 tCO2e. We will continue to reduce absolute emissions to Net Zero by 2050. Progress will be assessed through annual measurement against the 2021 baseline, alongside emissions-intensity indicators per FTE and per £1m revenue. The 2025 reporting-year total of 163.96 tCO2e is reported transparently and is not represented as a reduction against the 2021 baseline.

Progress against these targets is summarised below:

Carbon Reduction Projects

Completed Carbon Reduction Initiatives

Since the 2021 baseline, Forfusion Ltd has implemented annual organisation-wide greenhouse-gas measurement and carbon-footprint reporting using the operational-control approach, enabling identification and monitoring of priority emissions sources. The 2025 report records reductions compared with 2024 of 7.61 tCO2e in business travel, 5.70 tCO2e in on-site energy use and 1.50 tCO2e in hotel and event activities. The source reports do not attribute these movements to specific reduction projects and they are therefore not presented as a reduction against the 2021 baseline. These annual measurement and monitoring arrangements will remain in effect when performing relevant contracts.

Future carbon reduction initiatives

In the future we hope to implement further measures such as:

• Applying a travel hierarchy that prioritises virtual meetings where practicable and rail over air travel for suitable journeys.
• Encouraging lower-emission vehicles, car sharing, public transport and low-emission vehicle schemes.
• Improving energy efficiency through efficient lighting, equipment and appliances, smart energy management and evaluation of energy-efficient premises.
• Reducing hotel and event impacts through virtual attendance where appropriate, trip consolidation, eco-certified hotels and sustainable venues.
• Improving collection and review of travel, energy, commuting and other activity data to target emissions hotspots and assess progress annually.
