Wesselink Isolatie: Baseline Measurement Shows Net CO2-Negative Insulation
For Wesselink Isolatie, New Economy carried out a baseline measurement of the company’s CO2 impact. The key finding was that the emissions avoided through insulation can be significantly larger than the impact of production and installation.
Context
Insulation is an important climate measure because it reduces energy demand over many years. To communicate this credibly, companies need to understand both their own footprint and the avoided emissions created by their work.
Approach
The analysis compared operational emissions with the climate benefits of insulation measures over time.
New Economy’s role
New Economy carried out the CO2 baseline and translated the findings into a climate-impact narrative.
Outputs
- CO2 baseline measurement
- Avoided-emissions interpretation
- Climate-impact communication basis
Why it matters
The project helps show how insulation can create net climate benefits when measured carefully.
