We provide our customers with only 100% green electricity, actively contributing to environmental protection. We make responsibility for the planet a priority, so we also take care to minimize our own carbon footprint. Under the GHG Protocol, we have calculated and accurately monitor our emissions in two key scopes: Scope 1 (direct emissions) and Scope 2 (indirect emissions).
What is a carbon footprint?
A carbon footprint is the total sum of greenhouse gas emissions (carbon dioxide - CO2, methane - CH4, nitrous oxide - N2O, hydrofluorocarbons - HCFS, perfluorocarbons PFCS and sulfur hexafluoride - SF6) produced directly or indirectly by a person, organization, event or product.
Calculating an enterprise's carbon footprint is extremely important. The knowledge gained helps identify the main sources of greenhouse gas emissions and implement a plan to reduce them.
Companies that demonstrate transparency in their environmental activities and actively reduce their carbon footprint build an image as responsible business partners. This approach strengthens their competitive position in the supply chain, increasing the trust of customers and counterparties.
Reducing the carbon footprint supports the company in its business operations, makes it easier to obtain financing from banks, and attracts consumers who are increasingly choosing sustainable companies.
How to calculate the carbon footprint?
The basis for calculating the carbon footprint for companies are organizational standards:
ISO 14064:2018
A standard that provides guidelines for quantifying and reporting GHG emissions and removals.
GHG Protocol
Greenhouse Gas Protocol, which is an international standard for measuring and reporting GHG emissions.
The carbon footprint includes direct emissions, e.g., energy consumed directly on the company's premises, and indirect emissions, e.g., purchased energy.
To correctly calculate GHG emissions, three ranges are taken into account, according to the GHG Protocol:
Scope 1 includes direct emissions generated at company-controlled facilities, including from fuel combustion in stationary (heating boilers) and mobile (vehicle fleet) installations, as well as from refrigerants and industrial processes.
Scope 2 is indirect emissions related to the production of purchased electricity, heat, cooling or process steam.
Scope 3 deals with indirect emissions from the company's environment, such as emissions from the supply chain, employee transportation, business travel and waste management.

Scope 1 takes into account emissions related to fuel combustion in mobile sources, i.e. internal combustion vehicles in the fleet of Reo.pl Sp. z o.o.
Scope 2 includes indirect emissions related to the purchase of electricity and heat. We obtain 100% of our electricity from the RES installation. Heat comes from a gas boiler located in a building managed by the property owner. For this reason, emissions related to the use of thermal energy are included in Scope 2.
Emissions were calculated based on two methods:
location-based, which is based on location and results from energy production in the area where it is consumed,
market-based, which is based on the value being in the market and reflects the individual choices of companies as to which product or electricity supplier they buy.

Compared to 2023, there has been an increase in emissions, primarily due to Reo.pl's rapid growth. The increase in carbon footprint was influenced by factors such as the increase in employment, the corresponding increase in office space used and the intensification of the use of the vehicle fleet.
The results obtained will be another element used to build our long-term strategy, and in it, to take concrete measures to reduce emissions in the future - even as the organization continues to grow. In the near term, we are already planning to upgrade our current vehicle fleet toward zero-emission, as well as further measures to green the office we use.
At Reo.pl we believe that every responsible action starts with knowledge, and that includes measurements and calculations. That's why we continue to calculate our carbon footprint in order to derive the necessary knowledge to make informed and effective decisions in our business area.
How to reduce greenhouse gas emissions?
To reduce a company's greenhouse gas emissions, it makes sense to start by purchasing green electricity. This is the fastest step toward improving your company's emissions score.
Join the green revolution
Join a community that actively supports renewable energy sources
In addition, to reduce emissions, you can implement energy-efficient technologies used in production processes. It is also worthwhile to replace the company's fleet with electric vehicles. Another very important aspect toward decarbonization is improving the energy efficiency of production buildings, such as through better thermal insulation and smart energy management systems.
