Climate Governance & Disclosures
Footprinting and Reporting Services
We can help your organisation measure, manage, and reduce its carbon footprint, while supporting the communication of your milestones and achievements. Our assessment methodology is in alignment with the GHG Protocol’s Corporate Accounting Standard and the Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Accounting and Reporting Standard.
We help companies measure and report on their Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions and can also help financial institutions undertake an assessment of their financed or portfolio emissions and thus allow them to transition their investments to greener sectors.
CERE also advises organisations and businesses on their potential exposure to climate risks and opportunities while supporting them in their efforts to complete both voluntary and regulatory disclosures through the following platforms:
Assurance
CERE also supports organisations that are looking to take their carbon disclosures one step further. We can work with your company’s facilities, finance and administrative teams and third-party auditors to facilitate assurance or verification of your carbon footprint assessment against international standards like ISO 14064 or ISAE 3410. We have worked with auditors like KPMG, Deloitte, PwC, LRQA and ISOQAR.
Target Setting
We help our clients benchmark their performance against other companies in their sectors and also help organisations establish historical and internal benchmarks that can help drive carbon reductions. Our team can also help your organisation set robust yet practical carbon reduction and mitigation targets that are progressively in alignment with industry trends, India’s climate commitments and science-based targets (SBTi).
Policy Development
CERE is committed to helping companies develop environmental and climate policies that align with their business goals and meet regulatory requirements. Our team will assess the company’s current environmental performance, identify key areas for improvement, and work collaboratively with stakeholders to develop a set of realistic and achievable goals. An ESG, environmental or climate policy can help streamline a company’s ESG agenda and enhance its reputation as a responsible business.
Climate Mitigation & Strategy
Climate Mitigation & Strategy
At CERE, we understand the importance of reducing carbon emissions to combat climate change. That’s why we are committed to helping our clients develop effective carbon mitigation strategies. We will analyse your carbon footprint to identify emission hotspots and will leverage our extensive knowledge and experience in carbon management to propose:

- Technological solutions that can be implemented over the long term.
We work closely with you to develop a customized plan that fits your specific needs and goals, taking into account your industry, operational framework, and budget.
Our approach is comprehensive, addressing all aspects of carbon mitigation including:
- energy conservation and efficiency,
- renewable energy,
- waste reduction,
- green procurement,
- and transportation
Through our guidance and support, you can implement practical solutions that not only reduce your carbon footprint but also improve your bottom line.
