Carbon Reduction Plan
Supplier Name: Imaging Beyond Ltd
Publication Date: 19 May 2025
Commitment to Achieving Net Zero
Imaging Beyond Ltd is committed to achieving Net Zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, in line with UK Government targets and NHS sustainability objectives. As a healthcare AI startup, we recognise our responsibility to minimise environmental impact while supporting innovation that reduces unnecessary clinical procedures, travel, and resource use.
Our approach to sustainability is embedded within our operational decisions and will evolve as the company grows.
Carbon Emissions Footprint
Carbon emissions represent the greenhouse gas emissions generated during a defined period and provide a reference point against which future emissions reductions can be measured.
Current Reporting Year
Reporting Year: 2025
Methodology
Emissions for the 2025 reporting year were calculated using the Greenly Earth online carbon accounting tool, applying recognised greenhouse gas accounting methodologies and appropriate UK Government conversion factors.
Emissions Summary (tCO₂e)
| Emissions Scope | Total (tCO₂e) |
|---|---|
| Scope 1 (Direct emissions) | 0.9 |
| Scope 2 (Purchased electricity) | < 0.1 |
| Scope 3 (Selected categories) | 9.6 |
| Total Emissions | 10.2 |
Scope 3 emissions include relevant indirect sources such as business travel and purchased services, in line with PPN 06/21 requirements.
Emissions Reduction Targets
In support of our Net Zero 2050 commitment, Imaging Beyond Ltd has adopted the following operational carbon reduction measures:
Low-carbon travel: prioritising rail travel over car or air travel wherever feasible
Energy efficiency: minimising electricity consumption across office and remote working environments
Paperless operations: avoiding printing and operating predominantly through digital workflows
As a startup with a small workforce and evolving operational footprint, it is not yet possible to forecast with confidence whether absolute emissions will increase or decrease over the next five years. Growth in headcount and activity may lead to higher absolute emissions; however, we remain committed to reducing emissions intensity and embedding sustainability into all future scaling decisions.
As the business matures, we will collect multi-year emissions data and report trends with greater statistical confidence.
Carbon Reduction Projects
Completed Carbon Reduction Initiatives
As this is Imaging Beyond Ltd’s first year of operation, no formal carbon reduction projects have yet been completed.
Planned and Future Initiatives
As the organisation grows, we intend to explore and implement additional carbon reduction measures, including:
Adoption of LED lighting and PIR motion controls where applicable
Electrification of any future company vehicle fleet
Ongoing review of suppliers and partners to encourage sustainable practices
