The challenge
What entertainment & media are facing
Production emissions vary wildly
A studio recording session and a stadium tour have completely different emission profiles. Production-based tracking means every project is unique, making year-on-year company comparison difficult.
Venue energy is high and complex
Concert halls, theatres, studios — these are energy-intensive buildings with complex HVAC, lighting, and sound systems. Shared metering in multi-venue complexes makes attribution harder.
Touring creates massive travel emissions
Crew flights, equipment transport, tour buses — travel and freight emissions from touring can dwarf facility energy. But the data is scattered across booking agents, freight companies, and expense systems.
Funders now require carbon data
BAFTA albert certification, Arts Council England funding, and BBC commissioning all increasingly require carbon reporting. Without data, you lose access to funding and commissions.

Common questions
Entertainment & Media carbon reporting FAQ
albert is BAFTA's industry-backed sustainability standard for film, TV, and production. albert certification requires measuring and reducing production emissions. Broadcasters like the BBC, ITV, and Sky use albert to assess the sustainability of commissioned productions.
Arts Council England's Environmental Responsibility guidance expects National Portfolio Organisations and major grant recipients to measure and reduce their environmental impact. Having carbon data strengthens funding applications.
Climatise supports both project-based (per event, per production) and continuous (annual facility) reporting. For festivals or tours, you create a project; for venues, you track ongoing operations. Both feed into your company-level annual reporting.
