Our Environmental Certificate services help businesses accelerate technology adoption, improve project ROI and manage claims of renewable energy, energy efficiency and carbon offset certificates.
- Accelerated Technology Adoption: Businesses can quickly integrate new technologies, staying ahead in sustainability practices.
- Improved Project ROI: By managing renewable energy, energy efficiency and carbon offset certificates, your services enhance the financial return on projects.
- Efficient Claims Management: Businesses can efficiently handle and maximise claims, ensuring they receive the full benefits of their environmental initiatives.
There are many different certificates available with each fulfilling a specific purpose. Some of the more common certificates are:
- Solar (VEECS)
- Corporate Retirement (RECSI-RECs, GOs, TIGRs, LGCs, ZNECs, J-Credits & Offsets)
- Measurement & Verification (VEUVictorian Energy Upgrades is a Victorian government energy efficiency program that gives every Victorian household and business the opportunity to receive rebates or discounts on energy saving products. & ESSThe NSW Energy Savings Scheme (ESS) provides financial incentives to install, improve or replace energy savings equipment and appliances in NSW households and businesses. The ESS was established in 2009. Financial incentives are in the form of tradeable certificates, called energy savings certificates (ESCs). Generally, householders and businesses who fund energy savings activities transfer the right to create ESCs to Accredited Certificate Providers (ACPs) in return for a discount on the cost of the energy savings activity. The MWh savings from the project determines the number of ESCs that can be created. The ESS works by allowing ACPs to create and register ESCs for energy savings that are supported with appropriate evidence. ESCs are then purchased each year by mainly electricity retailers operating in NSW to meet their share of a legislated annual energy savings target.)

Our Results
Case Study – Frew Foods
The Client
Frew Foods International is a large wholesaler of quality lamb and sheep meat products to the major supermarkets and butchers across Australia.
The Aim
- M&V modelling challenges imposed by COVID restrictions
- Logistic issues with product fuel delivery due to COVID
- Drastic gas price variations
Outcomes
- More hot water capability with lower carbon emissions
- Less affected by natural gas price variations
Key Facts
- Equipment Upgraded Installation of 3MW biomassBiomass is plant or animal material used to produce electricity or heat. Examples include forestry by-products, crop waste, animal waste and food processing waste. Biomass is considered a renewable energy fuel if it comes from a sustainably managed source. boiler and 90,000 litre heat storage tank
- Annual Energy SavingsElectricity or gas savings or both. 21,160 GJA gigajoule (GJ) is the equivalent to 1 billion joules. A joule is a measure of the energy required to send an electrical current of one ampere through a resistance of one ohm for one second. One GJ is equal to 277.8 kilowatt hours ( kWh), 1.055 million British thermal units (Btu) or 0.17 barrels of oil. Gas

The Solution
Northmore Gordon provided an end to end service to ensure the project complied with the Victorian Energy Upgrade Program to maximise the financial incentives. Northmore Gordon’s Certified Measurement & Verification Professionals (CMVPs) created the M&V plan, collected site data & supporting evidence, built the baseline and operating energy models to calculate the energy savings. Subsequently we wrote the M&V report, and then created and traded VEECs on the clients behalf.
“Frew Foods collaborated with Northmore Gordon on a biomass boiler project, successfully creating 10,183 VEECs in September 2021. Despite the challenges of COVID-19, Northmore Gordon’s team demonstrated a deep understanding of our goals and delivered exceptional support. Their professionalism was evident throughout, and working with Alan was a pleasure. Thank you.”
Robert Frew, Owner & Managing Director at Frew Foods International Pty Ltd.
