1. Evaluation- using Greenpath software to accurately estimate the water, waste and energy usage of the existing operation

2. Reduction - Optimise processes -using OCEAN and PEARL software tools and equipment upgrades

3. Green energy - to help water utilities manage the implementation of green energy production units - solar, wind or methane digesters

4. Offset - to help water utilities generate carbon offsets for the unavoidable GHG

We estimated the emissions from our three plants at

● ~5,700 tons co2e / year (fy 2021-2022)

● 0.35 ton co2e / ml water produced (fy 2021-2022)

The greenpath analysis revealed that emissions are mainly due to energy and chemical use
