Our Story

Our Mission 

At Carbon Zero, we started out with two goals:

  • To provide high-quality, certified carbon offsets, to any organisation with climate values the same as ours.

  • Do our part in helping to reach net zero by enabling access to great projects with additional benefits.

Carbon Zero provides a platform to access internationally recognised emission reduction projects. We give you the opportunity to offset your carbon emissions by creating positive change for our planet, society and economy.

Whether you simply need to purchase a few tonnes of carbon to offset your solo business, or 1,000s of tonnes for your corporation’s footprint, we offer certified carbon offsets that can meet your requirements, sourced or developed by our team with over 15 years of industry experience.

We invest in environmental projects around the world that help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, while simultaneously improving local communities and preserving biodiversity and wildlife. The projects generate carbon credits from the reduction in fossil fuel consumption that can be used to compensate for your emissions. 

Our Heritage

Carbon Zero, a Carlton Carbon company, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Carlton Power Limited, an independent developer of low-carbon and renewable energy projects in the UK.

Carlton Power was founded in 1995 with the aim of providing low carbon, high quality permitted power projects to the new generation of companies that were entering the privatised UK Electricity Market. Since then we have developed >2,200MW of generation in the UK – all of which is still in operation.

Carlton are currently developing a portfolio of green hydrogen production facilities, one of which is the largest in the UK, with aspirations to implement up to 200MW of green energy production. This development is part of Trafford Low Carbon Energy Park.

Carbon Zero is our way of enabling you to offset your greenhouse gas emissions and become net zero.
