Our Services
Carbon Market Analysis and Advisory
Brightspot’s experts have years of experience advising provincial governments and stakeholder groups across Canada on developing and honing carbon pricing policies. We also help organizations strategize their best path forward given price and policy forecasts.
Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Verification
Our experts have completed hundreds of independent verifications of industrial facility annual GHG emission reports. Verifying these reports for regulatory compliance requires in-depth knowledge of the applicable quantification methodologies.
Carbon-Neutral Programs
Brightspot has led the development of carbon-neutral frameworks for several organizations in Canada, including a provincial government. We have been a carbon-neutral company 2016.
Emission Reduction Project Development
Voluntary emission reductions are a key component of the emissions reduction strategy in many jurisdictions. Voluntary emission reductions are formalized via marketable and tradable carbon offsets.
Life Cycle Assessments
Brightspot performs life cycle assessments in accordance with ISO 14040, 14044, and 14067. We calculate:
- carbon footprints and handprints for various products and processes;
- carbon intensity for low-carbon fuels, including renewable natural gas (RNG), compressed natural gas (CNG), and hydrogen; and
- carbon intensity for low-carbon fuel standards and clean fuel regulations.
Corporate Greenhouse Gas Inventories
A corporate greenhouse gas inventory is a framework used by organizations to measure and manage emissions associated with their business operations and supply chains. Brightspot has extensive experience quantifying and verifying corporate inventories.
