Testimonials

A really great experience. Staff were very understanding of our unique environment managing waste on the Isles of Scilly. They listened, were professional but friendly and provided great advice to us. The final report was excellent and has helped us enormously as we grapple with the complexities of our commercial waste service on the islands.

Cost benefit analysis of seabed mapping

Eunomia conducted a robust cost benefit analysis (CBA) that demonstrates the potential economic value of seabed mapping across multiple sectors, including offshore energy, shipping, telecommunications, fishing and aquaculture, marine defence, and environmental conservation. The analysis found that every £1 spent on seabed mapping could generate £86 in benefits to the UK’s marine economy.

Environment Agency – Social and environmental impacts of emerging greenhouse gas removal technologies

We partnered with the Environment Agency (EA) to explore the environmental and social implications of five specific emerging greenhouse gas removal (GGR) technologies. Our research built a strong evidence base to inform decisions on using these technologies in ways that balance the need for carbon removal with the protection of local communities and ecosystems.

ScottishPower – Circular economy baseline and opportunities assessment

Eunomia worked with ScottishPower, one of the UK’s largest energy providers, to support the delivery of a vital commitment in its Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction Plan: developing a Circular Economy Baseline and Action Plan to help tackle emissions from the company’s Scope 3 carbon footprint

The Duchy of Cornwall – calculating the complex carbon footprint of the vast estate of the Duchy of Cornwall

Using deep expertise to support The Duchy of Cornwall on its complex decarbonization journey. We developed a framework capable of calculating all emissions across the Duchy’s vast and varied estate.

Glasgow City Council, Zero Waste Scotland – Designing and implementing real-world recycling systems for the host of COP26

We combined our in-depth expertise in designing and implementing real-world recycling solutions with our proprietary waste collection modelling tool Hermes, which allows a wide range of authority specific and collection system variables to be modelled at a level that no other industry tool can match. The findings supported Glasgow City Council and Zero Waste Scotland in their efforts to raise Scotland's recycling rate.

TOMRA – Designing a reuse system at city level for the takeaway food industry

We modelled a reuse packaging system for the takeaway industry, demonstrating the benefits of moving away from single-use packaging. We then did cost analysis based on city-level implementation. Our study helped to drive circularity in the packaging in the fast food industry to reduce both waste and greenhouse gas emissions.

European Commission – Establishing best practice policy for extended producer responsibility across the EU

By establishing what best practice looks like for extended producer responsibility in the EU, we helped advance the circular economy and expand expertise on EPR.

Podback – Making coffee pod recycling a reality

We helped implement the first voluntary extended producer responsibility (EPR) scheme in the UK, in partnership with Podback. We designed a kerbside collection service for coffee pods and brokered partnerships with local authorities – all during a global pandemic and cost of living crisis.
