As a transport provider, most of our environmental impact arises from vehicle fuel consumption associated with the delivery of passenger transport services. Our carbon reduction efforts are therefore focused primarily on fleet efficiency, route optimisation, reduced vehicle emissions, and operational efficiency.
Baseline Emissions Footprint

Baseline Year: 2025/2026

Taylor Hanson Ltd is a Small and Medium-Sized Enterprise (SME) and is currently developing its carbon measurement and reporting arrangements.

At the time of publication, the company has not yet completed a formal greenhouse gas emissions inventory. This Carbon Reduction Plan therefore establishes our commitment to carbon reduction and provides the framework through which future emissions monitoring and reporting will be developed.

The principal source of emissions generated by the company arises from fuel consumption associated with passenger transport operations.

As our monitoring arrangements continue to develop, emissions data will be collected, reviewed, and incorporated into future revisions of this Carbon Reduction Plan.
Current Emissions Reporting

Taylor Hanson Ltd is committed to improving the measurement and monitoring of greenhouse gas emissions across its operations.

The primary sources of emissions within our organisation are expected to include:

Scope 1 Emissions

Direct emissions arising from sources owned or controlled by Taylor Hanson Ltd, including:
- Fuel consumption from company-operated vehicles.
- Operational transport activities.
Scope 2 Emissions

Indirect emissions arising from purchased electricity used within office and administrative functions.

Scope 3 Emissions

Relevant indirect emissions associated with business activities, which may include:
- Employee commuting.
- Business travel.
- Waste disposal.
- Purchased goods and services.

- Other operational supply chain activities.
Taylor Hanson Ltd is committed to improving the quality and availability of emissions data and will continue to develop reporting arrangements as part of our environmental management approach.
