We minimize our environmental impact and foster environmental awareness. We recognize our responsibility to safeguard a rich natural environment for future generations.
Goal Achieved: Carbon Neutral
Camelot has been officially certified as a “climate-neutral company” by South Pole, one of the industry’s leading partners for climate protection projects. The globally recognized certification is part of Camelot’s decarbonization strategy to reduce over 50% of CO2 emissions by 2026 and to fully offset all unavoidable emissions.
Annual Process Cycle
We understand the significance of Camelot’s footprint and established an annual recurring process cycle to reduce it.
REPORTING: We transparently report and evaluate our carbon emissions over all three GHG reporting scopes and all areas that contribute to our carbon footprint.
REDUCTION: We strive to reduce our carbon footprint to an absolute minimum, so that only unavoidable emissions will be left.
COMPENSATION: The unavoidable emissions will be offset with carbon credits, making Camelot a carbon-neutral, and ultimately net-zero carbon company.
ENABLEMENT: Our expertise is regularly published to help find solutions to minimize the environmental impact. With our consulting services, we help reduce our clients’ footprints.
Reporting of Carbon Emissions
Camelot became officially certified by South Pole as carbon neutral and strives for net-zero carbon in 2026. For Camelot as a consulting company, travel and commuting are the biggest drivers of emissions. The changes in working practices brought about by the Corona pandemic have already led to a significant reduction in this area. In addition, targeted measures have been introduced that directly reduce CO2 emissions or support climate-friendly behavior. Emissions that cannot be avoided are fully offset by supporting global renewable energy projects and Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) or Gold Standard innovations.
Cooperation with South Pole
South Pole develops and implements comprehensive emission reduction projects and strategies that turn climate action into long-term business opportunities for companies, governments, and organizations around the world.
Camelot has been awarded a silver medal for our sustainability initiatives as part of the EcoVadis sustainability ranking. This puts us in the top 25% of companies evaluated worldwide.
Focused CO2 Reduction
Continuous measures are needed to take steps in the right direction and reduce emissions in the long term.
Flexible Workspace
Preference for “hybrid” balancing personal interaction, efficient project delivery, travel expenses, and the carbon footprint.
No Short-Haul Flights
Verification of all flights for environmentally friendly alternatives.
Bike Leasing & E-Cars
Replacement of traditional traffic means by environmentally friendly travel.
And Much More
Further measures to reduce our ecological footprint are constantly being implemented.

Camelot at a Glance
By setting ambitious reduction targets, we aim to reduce our overall carbon footprint by 57% from a 2019 base year total of 4.121 t CO2e. This translates into the reduction of scope 1 GHG emissions by 85%, scope 2 by 41% and an reduction of scope 3 emissions by 54% by 2026. Impacts will mainly be generated within the area of travel and commuting since these are the main drivers of our carbon footprint.
