In today’s business landscape, sustainability credentials are more than a badge of honour — they’re a strategic advantage.

Elevate Your Certification Strategy with Celtic Dynamics

Our UK campaign supports businesses looking to improve their energy impact as part of broader ESG and sustainability efforts, including B Corp, EcoVadis, and Planet Mark pathways. Whether you’re preparing your first submission or looking to improve your performance scores, our team offers a tailored audit aligned with the key metrics of each framework.

What is a B Corp Energy Audit (and how does it help with EcoVadis & Planet Mark)?

Becoming a B Corp means demonstrating the highest standards of environmental and social responsibility. Similarly, EcoVadis assesses sustainability through evidence-based ratings across four pillars: Environment, Labour & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. Planet Mark focuses on carbon reduction and social value generation as part of its certification process.

A Celtic Dynamics energy audit identifies where your energy performance and policies currently stand — and shows exactly where and how to improve across:

  • Energy use

  • Greenhouse gas emissions

  • Renewable energy sourcing

  • Environmental policies and governance

  • Supply chain sustainability

Our approach transforms your sustainability goals into measurable action — and tangible results for your certification journey.

Benefits of Celtic Dynamics’ B Corp Energy Audit

 

Our audit can be used as core evidence in:

  • B Impact Assessment (B Corp)

  • EcoVadis Environmental Score

  • Planet Mark Certification Carbon Reporting

Whether you’re targeting one framework or more, we adapt our methodology to fit your business context and certification goals.

The audit process typically begins with a comprehensive assessment of current energy usage and carbon emissions. Our team will analyse all relevant data, including historical consumption patterns and future energy needs. This foundational understanding allows us to tailor our recommendations to fit your specific operational context, ensuring that every suggestion is actionable and relevant.

Comprehensive Energy Review

We assess your energy consumption across facilities, processes, and transport, with breakdowns by source and site. Through the audit process, we utilise advanced analytical tools to benchmark your energy performance against industry standards. This benchmarking process not only highlights areas where improvements can be made but also establishes clear targets for your organisation to strive towards. By setting measurable goals, we enable businesses to track their progress over time.

Carbon Footprint Reporting

Full Scope 1 & 2 emissions reporting (Scope 3 optional), using industry-recognised emissions factors (e.g., BEIS/DEFRA).

In tandem with carbon reporting, we focus on educating your team about the importance of sustainability. By conducting workshops and training sessions, we empower your staff to take ownership of energy management initiatives and cultivate a culture of environmental responsibility within your organisation.

Renewables & Energy Mix Analysis

Audit your use of green tariffs, onsite generation (like solar PV), and opportunities for increasing renewable energy uptake..

Another crucial aspect of the audit is the evaluation of your energy mix. We assess your current use of renewable energy sources and identify opportunities for increasing your reliance on green alternatives. For example, exploring options for solar panel installations or entering into power purchase agreements can significantly enhance your sustainability credentials while also reducing costs.

BIA-Focused Recommendations
  • Targeted actions to improve scores in:

      • Environment > Energy Use

    Beyond energy and emissions, a thorough B Corp Energy Audit examines your organisation’s governance structures related to sustainability. We assess your company’s policies, roles, and responsibilities in managing environmental impact, ensuring that your governance aligns with best practices and regulatory requirements.

    • Environment > Air & Climate
    • Environment > Environmental Management
Sustainability Policies & Governance

Review of existing policies, roles, and management systems (ISO 14001/50001 if applicable), and recommendations for improvement.

As part of our service, we also provide insights into how to green your supply chain.

By working collaboratively with suppliers, businesses can create a ripple effect that promotes sustainability throughout the entire supply chain.
