Everything you need in one simple online portal

WHO IS IT FOR?

The ERC Australia Protocol is designed for a broad range of organizations, from small businesses to large enterprises, that are committed to reducing their carbon footprint. It is particularly beneficial for industries with significant carbon emissions, such as manufacturing, agriculture, and energy. The protocol helps these organizations meet regulatory requirements, improve sustainability, and demonstrate their environmental responsibility. By offering tailored solutions, ERC Australia enables companies at various stages of their carbon reduction journey to achieve meaningful progress.

Beginners

SMEs new to decarbonisation, seeking to start their journey with minimal knowledge and need a straightforward path to develop an action plan.

Intermediates

SMEs that have measured their emissions but require a comprehensive Emissions Action Plan to share with customers and shareholders.

Advanced

SMEs with an existing emissions plan, seeking to centralise their decarbonisation efforts in one portal and looking for better options for emissions measurement and management.

a simple and affordable climate action program just for SMEs

In Australia, 98% of all businesses are SMEs - that's 2.4 million businesses. Every business currently produces too many carbon emissions - even yours!

Running an SME is already hard. There's so much to do! So, we need to help SMEs go carbon-free.

Here are five compelling reasons we developed this program for you: 

  1. Environment: High levels of carbon emissions destroy the planet by heating it up. 

  2. Sales: Customers are more and more favouring sustainable businesses. 

  3. Reputation: Cutting carbon emissions is good for your brand. 

  4. Bottom line: Cutting carbon emissions saves you money in energy and resources. 

  5. Staff: Green credentials can attract and retain employees.
