By Antoine Pradayrol This is the fourth six-monthly impact assessment report produced by Green Angel Syndicate, following up on our first report published in February 2020, our second one in October 2020, and our third in February 2021.
Green Angel Syndicate is one of the largest angel syndicates in the UK, and the only one specialising in the fight against climate change. We measure our impact in terms of the quantities of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions that have been prevented thanks to the activity of our portfolio companies.

By Antoine Pradayrol Six months ago, we published GAS’s first portfolio impact assessment, calculating for the first time the amount of greenhouse gas emissions that are being avoided thanks to our portfolio companies. As promised at the time, we are now publishing a six-month update - a great occasion for, in fact, three types of updates: (i) taking stock of the growth of each business and therefore of its impact; (ii) revising and improving our impact calculation methods where we could; and (iii) adding GAS’s new portfolio companies into the mix.
Heating accounts for half of energy consumption globally, and over a quarter of total CO2 emissions – so decarbonising heat must be an urgent priority.
However, this is a complex, multifaceted, thorny issue – with no single one-size-fits-all solution, but rather a variety of possible technologies which are both competitive and complementary; and the real-life impacts of the transition to zero carbon heating will be significant, in terms both of investments required and of disruption at customers’ premises.
