Early into the 2024 UK ETS reporting year, we thought it would be a good opportunity to update you on what the 2023 cycle felt like here for us here at Swan Energy.
We reported over one million tonnes CO2 on behalf of 88 installations across the UK for 2023 UK ETS reporting year. These installations and clients come from a variety of industry sectors, including food and drink, brewing and distilling, NHS and healthcare, energy, chemicals and manufacturing. We also verified emissions on behalf of a leading verification body at another four installations.
Number 1 – We are experts in our field. Swan Energy was founded over 25 years ago, and we have been involved in Energy Trading Systems since they were first established in the EU.
Number 2 – Our Operations Director, Joe Youldon, is a Verifier-in-Training for a UKAS accredited verification body for the UK ETS. What this means is that we understand the requirements that meet the verification standard better than most.
Number 3 – Linked with know-how and experience, we also have a strong network and contacts in the verification and regulatory bodies across the UK. If anyone in the Swan Energy team notices an issue, or identifies a challenge, we know who to speak with. When we pick up the phone to speak to someone in a regulatory body, we are trusted and respected.
Number 4 – A few years ago, we coined the phrase “power of the pack”, and we stick by that. We now have unique software and create an evidence pack for each individual client, every reporting year. This makes understanding complex research and actions easier for our clients – reducing the amount of time they need to spend looking at this. We have also consulted with verification bodies in developing these.
Number 5 – Finally, but importantly, we are always working behind the scenes. We are in regular contact with our clients and gathering data throughout the year.
