Our Environment

“Go Green” is the need of the hour and so is Energy Saving. By saving on energy you are saving on your Carbon footprint. To reduce emissions at home and at work it becomes quite essential that we should be able to tackle climatic changes effectively. We are committed constantly to cutting down carbon for our clients and reduce the environmental impacts and also those made by our own company.

At Elconn we understand that the biggest contribution we can make to be sustainable in the market is to share the practice and implement our Energy Saving Management Solutions within the Indian and global arena for two of the greatest causes:

• A Noble cause – Save Electricity….. Save Earth
• Financial Profit - Save Units… Save Bills.

Because none of us is sure how much further time our earth will survive without the basic conservation of energy.

What is a carbon footprint?

A carbon footprint is a measure of the impact our activities have on the environment and in particular on the climate change. It relates to the amount of greenhouse gases produced in our day - to - day lives through burning fossil fuels for electricity, heating, transportation, etc.

The carbon footprint is a measurement of all greenhouse gases we individually produce and has units of tons (or kgs.) of carbon dioxide equivalent.

A carbon footprint is made up of the sum of two parts :

• The primary footprint
• The secondary footprint

1. The primary footprint is a measure of our direct emissions of CO2 from the burning of fossil fuels including domestic energy consumption and transportation (e.g. car and plane). We have direct control of these.
2. The secondary footprint is a measure of the indirect CO2 emissions from the whole lifecycle of products we use - those associated with their manufacture and eventual breakdown.

To put it very simply - the more we buy the more emissions will be caused on our behalf.

What are carbon credits?

Commonly known as cap and trade, carbon credits are essentially a form of emissions trading. A carbon credit is a unit of value ascribed to an offset or reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. One credit is equal to one ton of Green House Gases (GHG), namely CO2 (or an equivalent, on the basis of the market).

How They Work :

Depending on the country you live in, the amount of GHG allowed to be emitted by a particular company is capped at a certain level. If they exceed this level, a company can offset their excessive emissions by purchasing carbon credits.

Likewise, if a particular company's emissions fall below the cap, they can opt to sell the difference as credits to those companies who have gone over the cap.
