Climate change

Climate change is the main social, economic and environmental challenge we face in the coming years.

Global and European policies indicate the need to work at all levels and in all sectors to reduce GHG (Green House Gases) emissions and increase the resilience of cities and regions. At European level, the goal we are called to achieve, with the joint effort of institutions, private organisations and citizens, is carbon neutrality by 2050.

Envipark’s competences for the ecological transition and the fight against climate change, are:

Tools for resilient cities and regions

We have expertise and tools to evaluate emissions from the activities of companies and public authorities, such as:

  • Preparation of emission inventories and energy and climate action plans for public administrations (SEAP – Sustainable Energy Action Plan, SECAP – Sustainable. Energy and Climate Action Plan)
  • GHG emission inventories and carbon footprint calculations for public and private organisations in accordance with UNI EN ISO 14060 series standards, PEF (Product Environmental Footprint) and GHG Reporting Protocol
  • Calculation of lifecycle emissions of products and services by means of LCA analysis in accordance with the UNI EN ISO 14040 series standards and support for environmental product certification (EPD) in accordance with the ISO 14025 standard
  • Technical and economic analyses supporting the creation of local renewable energy communities
  • Support to public authorities for the drafting of specifications for Innovation and Green Public Procurement 
  • Solutions for sustainable management of the forest-wood chain
  • Tools for urban regeneration adopting Nature Based Solution (NBS)
  • Optimization of processes on a pre-industrial scale for reducing GHG 
  • Quantification of GHG emission savings and reduction of fossil fuel use by applying circular economy principles
  • Sustainable design and implementation of improved products and processes using Plasma surface treatment technologies

Let’s talk about climate change!

We offer our space and expertise to organise debates with experts, hackathons and exhibitions on the themes of the climate and environmental crisis. Would you like to propose an event or a collaboration on these themes? Let’s talk about it!
