Companies across the globe are being called upon to tackle their emissions and commit to net zero carbon. With the pressure on to step up, how a business responds, the project they deliver, the promises they make, and their actions sit firmly under the spotlight.
Your sustainability strategy impacts your bottom line and your future prospects so it’s important to get it right from the get-go. Whether you’re at the start of your net zero journey, you’ve already committed but need help to reach your targets, or you need solutions to deliver a net zero project. We’re here to help you reduce your emissions and reach carbon neutral.
With multi-disciplinary expertise and a holistic approach, we inform, advise and support clients to formulate a strategy that aligns with key UN Sustainable Development Goals, global indices and reporting initiatives.
We work with you to determine your current emissions, set clear reduction targets and outline a net zero roadmap to help you achieve your goals.
Our services
The transformation to a net zero carbon society requires a shift in the way we plan, design and build the supporting infrastructure. Our consultants have extensive experience in sourcing and designing sustainable solutions and assessing energy usage for both new and existing buildings to help our clients achieve their carbon reduction targets.
Our services
Improving the energy efficiency of our existing building stock is a vital step on our journey to net zero. If we are to meet our agreed targets and reduce emissions to pre 1990 levels, the wholesale repurposing and retrofitting of our built assets is essential.
Costs, policy uncertainty and the challenge of delivering at scale and pace are just some of the barriers to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. The volume, type, age and current efficiency of buildings demands a huge retrofit operation to meet net zero carbon targets.
Your carbon footprint might be complex, but your journey to carbon neutral doesn’t have to be. Our sustainability experts can help you formulate a corporate strategy that embeds net zero across your organisation and into your everyday thinking. We can work with your project team to help you deliver a sustainable project with our carbon reduction solutions to tackle your emissions.

The 2050 target is getting closer, but clarity over exactly what organisations need to do to achieve net zero carbon remains hard to come by.
Designed to help clients navigate complexity, Building Sustainably: The Road to Net Zero explores real-life case studies to provide pragmatic advice and actionable takeaways. Covering a wide range of topics including how to fund, plan, design, and manage net zero programmes in the built environment, RPS is pleased to bring together public and private sector organisations to share knowledge, insight, and lessons learned.
For years, developers and contractors have been aware of a building's operational carbon emissions when developing new sites. Responsible for most of the total emissions over an asset’s lifetime, they have been a priority for carbon reduction targets to date. But to become carbon neutral and deliver net zero buildings, the same level of focus and investment is needed to tackle embodied carbon emissions.
We're proud members of the UK Green Building Council (UKGBC), an industry-led organisation on a mission to radically improve the sustainability of the built environment, transforming the way it’s planned, designed, constructed, maintained and operated.
RPS Consulting UK & Ireland have also pledged to Pledge to Net Zero, joining organisations from across the environmental services industry to take a leadership role in the transition to a Net Zero carbon future. We have pledged to set and deliver a greenhouse gas target and publicly report our emissions and progress each year.
