Revenue model

1. Energy Efficiency Audits & Advisory: Carb0n conducts comprehensive energy and technical audits of real estate assets, including flash and full audits, regulatory trajectory analysis, and renovation scenario planning. These are consultative, project-based engagements that form the entry point into client relationships.
2. Photovoltaic Installation Projects: End-to-end photovoltaic project development including feasibility studies, detailed design, permitting, contractor coordination, and long-term performance monitoring. Revenue is generated through project development fees and ongoing performance follow-up.
3. Energy Performance Contracting (CPE): Performance-based contracts where Carb0n commits to measurable energy savings targets. This creates recurring engagement revenue through guaranteed performance monitoring, reporting, and ongoing optimization over multi-year contract periods.
4. GTB (Building Management) Solutions: Design and implementation of Building Management Systems (GTB/GTB Light) including technical strategy, hardware specification, commissioning, and regulatory compliance (BACS decree). Revenue is project-based with potential ongoing support.
5. Works Execution & Project Management: Orchestration and execution of renovation and energy transition works across CVC, lighting, insulation and other efficiency measures. Carb0n acts as general contractor or AMO, managing partners and subcontractors.
6. SaaS Platform Subscription: Web application providing real-time monitoring of portfolio energy performance, regulatory compliance dashboards, audit reports, and CAPEX projections. Likely offered as a subscription tier within the broader service package.
