Hays Carbon Reporting

We worked with Carbon Cost to produce a carbon emissions data capture and reporting system for use internationally across all of Hays’ sites around the world.

Hays are an international recruiting firm that wanted a new system for tracking their carbon emissions to aid in producing their carbon footprint report.  We worked with Carbon Cost to develop a bespoke system for capturing energy usage and converting that to emissions data ready for export.

The data types were split five key areas within which the detailed energy usage could be added for each location.  The system was built to convert usage into a common unit and then run it through industry standard conversion factors (such as DEFRA’s greenhouse gas reporting conversion factors) to produce indicative charts and full data exports as excel spreadsheets.

Figures could be audited after input to ensure the greatest accuracy and after the initial years capture it could indicate year on year changes in emissions.
