The challenges we face

Since it was founded in 1946, bentley always in its 339000 cubic meters of crewe factory to design and manufacture of car.The factory has 4000 employees, annual output of cars more than 10000 vehicles.Over the past two decades, bentley has been to the headquarters of its historic factory to improve energy efficiency and carbon efficiency.

In 2019, bentley hope to solve the problem of the factory emissions, efforts to achieve the factory production of carbon neutral.Therefore, bentley launched large-scale staff to participate in the project of energy efficiency, and to invest heavily in renewable energy power generation, including the construction of the UK's largest solar parking lot, the project has installed 10000 solar panels, covers 1378 parking Spaces, covers an area of 16426 square meters.The project with crewe factory existing roof solar panels, can provide 7.7 MW solar power generation capacity a year, enough to meet more than 1750 homes.

Bentley by investing in solar power generation and buy green electricity quotas, make crewe factory 100% renewable energy power supply.

After the bentley hopes to get its factory business carbon neutral certification.However, in order to more confidently to the internal and external stakeholders promote their achievement in the field of carbon neutral, bentley need access to reliable and credible independent certification.

How do we help?

Through this project, we support the bentley realize its sustainable development goal, further prove its UK plant operations in accordance with internationally recognized PAS 2060 carbon neutral standard requirements.

We used to mean the scope of cooperation with bentley and scope 2 emissions calculation result is reliable, but carbon neutral certification also involves two steps: according to the greenhouse gas accounting system to measure the bentley's carbon footprint, and verify the bentley do "qualified explanatory notes" (QES).Included in the "qualified explanatory notes" bentley commitment to become carbon neutral statement, constituting the roadmap to reduce emissions and the use of the gold standard and the voluntary carbon standard (VCS) such as carbon credits to offset the strategy.

In order to maintain the bentley carbon neutral certification, must continue to reduce carbon emissions a year, and through its carbon reduction roadmap locking discharge hot spots.
