ACX has the expertise and market intelligence to analyse your company's emissions profile and business plans in order to develop tailor made greenhouse gas strategies that focus on maximising shareholder value.
Consulting Services
There are very few who offer commercial solutions to the global warming challenge. ACX has the expertise and market intelligence to analyse your company's emissions profile and business plans in order to develop tailor made greenhouse gas strategies that focus on maximising shareholder value. This is achieved through the combination of providing risk products and exploring commercial opportunities that may emerge.
This is a high level consulting service designed to complement and add value to an emissions management system like EmMap™ or a program or service provided by a third party. One of the most confusing aspects of the current environment is the proliferation of carbon neutral programs and "how to" guides offering "an easy 3 step process to going carbon neutral". Apart from the wide variance in rigour and due process, most of the schemes we have come across are advocating solutions that are an expensive quick fix and do not represent a sustainable solution. Our Strategic Consulting Service is aimed at developing sustainable solutions which will pass muster with both your shareholders and your auditors.
Managing Value at Risk
Investors are beginning to discount the value of companies with a direct exposure to large inventories of greenhouse gas emissions. Many of these traditional large emitters have sought to manage and mitigate the value at risk in their asset portfolios. Now even businesses with relatively low direct exposure are realising that the carbon in their value chains threatens their ability to grow profits and provide acceptable returns to shareholders. ACX looks beyond the obvious direct exposure and analyses the full value chain against several regulatory and market scenarios to map the value at risk and develop mitigation plans.
Capturing the Carbon Value
Many companies are already providing or plan to provide products and services with a lower "carbon footprint" than their competitors or what is often described as the "business as usual" baseline. The benefit or true value of this carbon saving is often passed on unnoticed or as an intangible value add. ACX has extensive experience in identifying and realising this value and can provide companies with strategies to monetise and capture the value transfer of their cleaner products and services.
Creating Competitive Advantage
Companies that mitigate their exposure to climate-change risks, while pursuing new "clean" business opportunities, will generate a competitive advantage over rivals in a carbon-constrained future. ACX has the expertise and market intelligence to develop strategies that manage the risks and maximise the opportunities to create long term competitive advantage.
