Carbon Funding

What carbon funding means

Every retrofit programme has a carbon funding opportunity — most organisations miss it

Carbon funding turns energy improvements into a financial resource. Every retrofit measure — insulation, heat pumps, solar PV — generates a measurable carbon saving. RetrofitScore helps you quantify, verify, and monetise those savings through voluntary carbon markets, reduction plans, tax agreements, and social value frameworks.

Whether you're a local authority running a housing retrofit programme, a commercial landlord managing MEES compliance, or an energy-intensive business seeking CCL relief — we structure the right carbon funding approach for your organisation and objectives.

Step 01

Measure & baseline

Establish your Scope 1, 2 & 3 carbon footprint. Set a verified baseline for all future reduction targets and reporting.

Step 02

Reduce & retrofit

Deliver fabric, heating and renewable improvements. Every measure generates verified, auditable carbon savings.

Step 03

Fund & finance

Access carbon finance, LA grants and green asset funding. Forward-sell carbon savings to fund the works that create them.

Step 04

Retire & report

Offset residual emissions through accredited credits. Report social value and carbon outcomes to stakeholders with full audit trail.

Carbon Funding Services

Four specialist services — one integrated carbon programme

Each sub-service can be accessed individually or combined into a single carbon funding programme — planned, delivered, and reported by one team.

Service 01

Construction CO₂ Offsetting & Net Zero Buildings

Portfolio CO₂ monitoring, net zero building planning, and verified carbon offsetting for new-build and retrofit developers with construction-phase and operational net zero commitments. We quantify embodied and operational carbon, build a reduction plan, and broker verified credits to offset residual emissions — producing documentation for planning conditions, investor reporting, and voluntary disclosure.

Service 02

Carbon Reduction Plans

Scope 2 and Scope 3 carbon solutions and PPN 06/21-compliant Carbon Reduction Plans for public sector suppliers — required for all contracts above £5m from April 2024. We produce Tier 1 plans covering headline commitments and Tier 2 plans with full Scope 1, 2, and 3 data, reduction milestones, and costed implementation programmes — ready for publication, procurement submission, and independent audit.

Service 03

CCA Climate Change Agreements

Carbon sustainability and CCL (Climate Change Levy) tax reduction for qualifying energy-intensive businesses — managed from initial application through to annual target monitoring, certification, and renewal. Climate Change Agreements allow eligible businesses to secure up to 90% reduction on their CCL payments, delivering significant annual tax savings. We manage the full CCA lifecycle so businesses maintain their relief without compliance gaps or missed deadlines.

Service 04

Local Authority Delivery — Social Value

Carbon social value, verification and monitoring, and whole asset management linked to every LA-funded retrofit scheme. We quantify the social value generated by retrofit programmes using HACT and TOMs frameworks — translating warm homes, reduced fuel poverty, improved health outcomes, and local employment into auditable, monetised social value figures for funder reporting, DESNZ submissions, and stakeholder communications.

Why RetrofitScore

Carbon expertise built on real delivery — not just consultancy

Our carbon funding services are grounded in the retrofit programmes we actually deliver. Every carbon saving we report comes from a real measure, in a real building, monitored against a real baseline — not modelled assumptions or desktop estimates.
