Sustainability & Climate Consulting
Senior carbon, climate change and sustainability reporting advice, built to cost you less than you spend today.
Grey Epoch Consulting brings senior sustainability and climate advice to shipping, aviation, energy and industrial companies, backed by a leading carbon market firm. We help you move from audit-ready data to managing what carbon costs you.
Carbon has a price. Now it needs a plan.
Trading schemes and border measures put a price on emissions. CSRD/ESRS, IFRS S1–S2, UK SRS and TSRS make climate performance public and auditable. Customers, lenders and investors use that information to decide who they buy from, lend to and invest in.
Financial
Rising carbon costs, margin pressure and potentially higher financing costs where transition plans fall short.
Reputational
Unverifiable or inconsistent climate claims attract scrutiny from regulators, investors and customers.
Operational
Data gaps, customer requests and new reporting cycles strain teams, systems and controls.
Grey Epoch brings together carbon, sustainability and climate expertise to help businesses navigate these challenges, set priorities and take practical action.
We’ll be at COP31

Carbon data, cost and action, connected.
Our team pairs senior sustainability, reporting and assurance expertise with people who understand how carbon markets work in practice.
We build emissions data that verifiers and auditors accept, and we work out what your exposure costs at current market levels, so you know what compliance means for your budget.
You measure once and use the data for compliance, reporting and procurement. IFRS S2, for example, asks how you plan to use carbon credits; we can answer both the disclosure and the procurement question.
Not sure where to start? A Carbon Check-up maps your exposure in 30 minutes.

Not sure where you stand? Start with a complimentary Carbon Check-up.
A short call to map your carbon, reporting and cost exposure, and where value may be missing.
In a 30-minute call, we review your exposure to CBAM, the EU and UK ETS, and the reporting standards that apply to you. We also look at your current climate, reporting and carbon consultancy spend. You then receive a two-page summary of your key exposures, an indicative carbon cost range and where your spend could be better targeted.
For shipping, aviation, energy and industrial companies. Indicative only, based on public information and data you provide; not formal advice.
