Managing Greenhouse Gas Emissions

As oil and gas prices increase and the carbon constrained economy emerges, there are increasing financial drivers to improve energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

  

A significant development in this regard is the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) currently being implemented in each Member State and which commenced in January 2005.  The scheme, while imposing restrictions on the traded sector, also presents an opportunity for companies who can reduce emissions and trade their surplus allowances.  

 

We have prepared a number of briefing documents setting out the main implications for industry of Emissions Trading and other Climate Change initiatives.  These documents are available to download here.

Byrne Ó Cléirigh's Carbon Management Expertise

Byrne Ó Cléirigh has the specialist experience and expertise required to enable Clients assess their position and potential liabilities with respect to emissions trading.  This is important both in the immediate future (up to 2007) during the pilot ETS scheme, and in the longer term as constraints on carbon emissions increase.  

 

We have worked with government departments and agencies in Ireland, the UK and Slovenia on the formulation of energy policy and assisted with the development of National Allocation Plans, evaluation of Emission Trading Schemes, and Energy Conservation Strategies.  We have also assisted private sector clients with GHG inventories, energy auditing and energy management.  Our range of services in this field includes:

Strategic Advice on Emissions Trading and Flexible Mechanisms;

Greenhouse Gas Inventories, Monitoring and Reporting;

Energy Auditing, Benchmarking, Targeting and Monitoring;

Carbon Abatement Strategies and Technologies including fuel switching to Carbon neutral fuels;

Engineering and Management of Projects.

Byrne Ó Cléirigh can assist with all aspects of managing carbon emissions and participating in the ETS: from auditing to inventories and projections, advice on trading, and identification and implementation of energy efficiency and carbon abatement technologies.  A major new area of emphasis is expected to be fuel switching to low Carbon or Carbon neutral fuels.  We are actively engaged on assignments involving wood, rape seed oil, waste solvent and biomass.
