Our team is experienced with conducting comprehensive assessments of greenhouse gas emissions across the full operational footprint and value chain embedded in oil and gas operations. Our work began with identifying the complete universe of emission sources and designing a structured data collection framework aligned with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol to ensure methodological rigor and reporting consistency.

The team has quantified Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions across mobile and stationary fuel combustion, fugitive and process emissions, and purchased electricity, applying both location-based and market-based methodologies. In parallel, we identified and calculated material Scope 3 categories relevant to the sector, including purchased goods and capital equipment, transportation and logistics, waste, fuel- and energy-related activities, and use of sold products.

Building on this emissions baseline, Giero developed science-aligned decarbonization pathways, incorporating target setting, marginal abatement modeling, and structured net-zero transition planning. Our team also led the preparation of climate and ESG disclosures aligned with International Sustainability Standards Board standards (IFRS S1/S2), Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures recommendations, and other regulatory and voluntary frameworks. The result was a defensible, audit-ready emissions inventory and a strategic roadmap positioning the client for long-term climate resilience and investor confidence.

For a more than 100 power generation facilities, we led the development of a consolidated, enterprise-wide greenhouse gas inventory. The engagement involved large-scale quantification of energy consumption and emissions across a geographically dispersed asset base.

We consolidated and validated site-level fuel use and electricity generation data, implementing standardized calculation methodologies aligned with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and applicable regulatory reporting requirements. Scope 1 emissions from stationary combustion were calculated using plant-specific heat rates, fuel characteristics, and emission factors, with Scope 2 emissions assessed where relevant.

To ensure long-term scalability and assurance readiness, we designed robust data management and quality control processes, embedding documentation of methodologies, assumptions, and internal controls. Our work supported climate disclosure aligned with International Sustainability Standards Board standards and Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures recommendations, positioning the organization for audit defensibility and enhanced transparency across stakeholders.

Giero has supported multiple mining clients in evaluating the carbon and co-pollutant reduction potential of an advanced wastewater tailings treatment solution designed to mitigate emissions from tailings pond off-gassing.

The team is experienced in quantifying baseline and projected post-implementation emissions, covering both greenhouse gases and criteria air contaminants such as NOx, SOx, and VOCs. Using engineering-based calculations and emissions factor methodologies, we modeled lifecycle impacts—including energy requirements, reagent inputs, and operational changes—to assess net abatement effectiveness and avoided emissions.

Beyond technical quantification, Giero evaluated regulatory alignment and air quality compliance implications, identifying potential reductions in reportable emissions and environmental liabilities. Decision-support materials were developed to summarize emissions performance, implementation considerations, and strategic ESG implications. This enabled executive leadership to assess the solution not only as an environmental initiative, but as a risk mitigation and value-enhancing investment aligned with long-term sustainability commitments.

For publicly listed retail companies, our founder has led enterprise-wide greenhouse gas inventory development, mapping operational and value chain emission sources across stores, distribution centers, corporate offices, and logistics networks.

Accordingly, our team is experienced with quantifying Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions through detailed analysis of fuel consumption, refrigerant leakage, and purchased electricity, consolidating energy data across extensive property portfolios. Giero also identified and estimated material Scope 3 categories, incorporating supplier emissions, upstream transportation, waste streams, and relevant use-phase considerations.

To address data variability and reporting complexity, Giero developed advanced measurement and estimation methodologies, including gap-filling techniques, accrual models for incomplete utility data, and normalized intensity metrics such as emissions per square foot and per revenue. Giero established emissions baselines and supported public disclosures aligned with International Sustainability Standards Board standards and Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures recommendations, as well as securities regulatory requirements. The outcome was a robust, audit-ready inventory framework enabling transparent reporting and strengthened investor confidence.

We partnered with dozens of electronic waste management companies to quantify lifecycle emissions and evaluate circular economy strategies. Leveraging existing Product Carbon Footprints (PCFs) and supplier-provided lifecycle data, we established baseline embodied emissions associated with electronic asset manufacturing.

Our analysis extended to end-of-life processing emissions, including collection, transportation, dismantling, shredding, and material recovery activities. We then modeled avoided emissions attributable to refurbishment and life extension, comparing reuse scenarios against new device production using lifecycle assessment methodologies.

By evaluating net environmental performance across reuse, recycling, and disposal pathways, we provided a data-driven foundation for strategic positioning within the circular economy. All emissions quantification and lifecycle documentation were prepared in alignment with International Organization for Standardization standards ISO 14064 (GHG accounting and reporting) and ISO 14044 (lifecycle assessment methodology), ensuring transparency, methodological robustness, and verification readiness.

Our team is experienced with developing decarbonization pathways across multiple sectors, including the transportation and food industry. Giero has reviewed decarbonization plans and supported emission audits for scope 1 and scope 2 GHGs. Moreover, our team is experienced with operationalizing renewable energy credits within warehouse operations, and negotiating green lease terms with retail tenants. To that adds developing ESG strategy for a publically listed clean technology royalty company.
