Its reported Scope 1 and location-based Scope 2 emissions stood at 67 and 46 tCO2e during the period. Its reported Scope 3 emissions, which cover employee business mileage only, rose from 8 to 46 tCO2e amid the return to normality following Covid.

Scope 1 and 2 emissions:
Location based: 110 tCO2e (-13%)
Market based: 63 tCO2e (+7%)
Revenue: £363m
Emissions per £1m revenue: 0.3 tCO2e (location based), 0.2 tCO2e (market based)
boxxe’s decision not to go ahead with becoming a B Corp hasn’t stopped it embedding “the good things it represents” across its business, CEO Phil Doye told IT Channel Oxygen in January.
boxxe’s reported Scope 1 and 2 emissions stood at 110 tCO2e in calendar 2022, using a location-based approach for the latter. This falls to 63 tCO2e using a market-based approach.
Having procured 65% of its electricity from renewable sources in 2022, boxxe said it was aiming to boost this to 100% by the end of 2023. It has also installed electric charging points in three of its four premises.
8. Daisy
Scope 1 and 2 emissions: 3,985 tCO2e (+8%)
Revenue: £417m
Emissions per £1m revenue: 9.6 tCO2e
Daisy’s reported Scope 1 and 2 emissions rose 8% to 3,985 tCO2e in its year to 31 March 2023, which it said reflected a return to pre-Covid working patterns.
The comms giant re-baselined its figures to reflect the sale of its energy-hungry datacentre assets during the year, as well as the cessation of trade in its Allvotec division and acquisition of XLN (without this adjustment, its reported Scope 1 and 2 emissions in the previous year were much higher – at nearly 12,000 tCO2e).
Daisy’s £200m-revenue IT infrastructure arm, Daisy Corporate Services, is on course to be net zero on Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2026, and plans to submit its targets with the Science Based Targets initiative in its current financial year, COO Lyndsey Charlton told IT Channel Oxygen.
