Supporting your business on the path to decarbonisation
We support Irish businesses in designing and delivering practical low carbon strategies that reduce emissions, strengthen resilience, and support commercial performance.
Businesses play a role in greenhouse gas emissions, but they also have a clear opportunity to reduce them and contribute to global net zero targets by 2050, including Ireland’s national climate commitments and EU-wide targets.
At ABGi Ireland, we see innovation and corporate responsibility as closely linked. A low carbon strategy is often the starting point for building a broader approach to sustainable innovation and long-term impact.
A low carbon strategy is a structured plan to measure, manage and reduce a company’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
It typically involves setting reduction targets aligned with national and international frameworks, such as Irish climate policy and EU decarbonisation objectives, while also considering how the business can adapt to the effects of climate change.
A well-developed strategy looks beyond emissions alone. It also assesses risks and opportunities, helping businesses maintain performance while meeting increasing expectations from customers, regulators and investors.
Who needs to act?
For many organisations, carbon reporting is no longer optional.
Listed companies are already required to report under frameworks such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), which applies to qualifying Irish and EU-based organisations.
Smaller businesses are also being drawn in through supply chains, where larger organisations increasingly expect visibility on carbon impact and reduction plans, particularly across Irish and European value chains.
The business case for a low carbon strategy
A clear and structured approach can deliver benefits beyond environmental impact:
Regulatory readiness
Stay ahead of evolving reporting and compliance requirements, including Irish and EU sustainability regulations.
Stronger brand positioning
Demonstrate a credible and transparent commitment to sustainability.
Operational efficiency
Reduce energy use and optimise resources across the business.
Improved resilience
Prepare for future risks linked to climate change, regulation and market expectations.
A structured approach tailored to your business
ABGi Ireland provides end-to-end support, from initial assessment through to implementation. Our approach includes:

Decarbonisation strategy
We develop a tailored climate strategy based on a detailed understanding of your emissions profile, helping you prioritise actions and define a clear roadmap.
Identifying low carbon solutions
We work with you to identify the most relevant technologies and approaches for your sector, including responsible sourcing, eco-design and circular economy models.
