Baseline emissions are a record of the greenhouse gases that have been produced in the past and were produced prior to the introduction of any strategies to reduce emissions. Baseline emissions are the reference point against which emissions reduction can be measured.

Baseline Year: 1st April 2020 – 31st March 2021

Additional Details relating to the Baseline Emissions calculations.

Huggg has used Carbon Footprint Ltd’s online carbon calculator on www.carbonfootprint.com to calculate its carbon footprint for the period 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2025. The calculation uses the 2021 emission factors developed by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) and the Department for Business, Environment & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) for reporting emissions. The data input into the calculator was independently verified by Carbon Footprint Ltd.

In the baseline assessment, Huggg Limited have captured emissions for serviced office energy, home working, business travel, employee commuting and waste production. Emissions from inbound and outbound freight logistics were considered but are outside of Huggg Limited operations due to not having any operational or financial control over the logistics elements and delivery of products to customers.

Baseline year emissions:
Emissions	Total (tCO2e)
Scope 1	0.65
Scope 2	1.10
Scope 3 (Included Sources)	12.70
Total Emissions	14.45
Emissions per employee	2.41

Current Emissions Reporting

Latest Year: 1st April 2024 – 31st March 2025
Emissions	Total (tCO2e)
Scope 1	0
Scope 2	0
Scope 3 (Included Sources)	3.63
Total Emissions	3.63
Emissions per employee	0.27

As we are all fully remote and have been for over a year, we report our employees as homeworkers. The homeworking electricity and gas consumption per homeworker is accounted for in Scope 3. In addition, as we have no company owned cars, and as a result, our Scope 1 and Scope 2 are both 0.

To calculate our electricity usage when we hold office space, we use 226 kWh/m2 and 178 kWh/m2 for our gas usage; calculation provided by the Chartered Institute of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE) for an air-conditioned office.
