Carbon Saving and Offsetting
Reducing and offsetting carbon emissions is becoming increasingly important in the business world but is not new to eaga. As Corporate Social Responsibility sits at the heart of our organisation, we are proactive in reducing our own carbon and environmental impact and have the knowledge and expertise to help others to do the same.
Interaction
Carbon savings identified through our government schemes are traded with utility companies, which use them as part of their Energy Efficiency Commitments (EEC) and, in the future, their Carbon Emissions Reductions Targets (CERT). The resultant revenue is re-invested into the appropriate fuel poverty programmes, enabling eaga to assist more households in improving the warmth and efficiency of their homes.

Balance Trading
The Balance Trading principle is based on the Government’s Sustainable Development Commission. The volume of carbon emitted by a development is calculated and then offset through energy efficiency improvements to existing homes in the surrounding community.
