Commitment to achieving Net Zero
electroCore UK, Ltd. is committed to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050.
As a small and medium-sized enterprise, we recognise that we have the ability to determine the type of organisation we aspire to be and the impact our activities have on the environment. The team at electroCore is committed to contributing to climate change mitigation efforts and aims to be part of the solution rather than the problem. We also support the NHS in its ambition to become the world’s first net zero national health service.
Looking ahead, our long-term ambition is to operate as a carbon-negative organisation through the implementation of additional carbon reduction initiatives and environmental strategies.
Baseline Emissions Footprint
Baseline emissions represent a record of greenhouse gas emissions produced in previous years prior to the implementation of emissions reduction initiatives. This baseline serves as the reference point against which future emissions reductions can be measured.
| Baseline Year: 2022 | |
| Additional Details relating to the Baseline Emissions calculations. | |
| electroCore UK, LTD have not previously calculated and published any carbon emission calculations, we therefore chose to look at the most recent year of 2022 for our baseline. These calculations have been developed in line with the Cabinet Office’s ‘Guidance on adopting and applying the PPN 06/21’ and the ‘Greenhouse Gas Protocol’ initiative guidance. Some calculations were completed using the UK Greenhouse gas reporting: conversion factors 2022, Carbon Care .org, and some using the Carbon Footprint’s Micro Business Footprint Calculator. The data included in these emissions is for activities taking place in the UK and includes any deliveries and goods shipped into Europe. | |

electroCore UK, Ltd. has completed its third cycle of carbon emissions calculations for the 2025 reporting year, building upon the baseline established in 2022. These calculations were conducted in accordance with the Cabinet Office’s Guidance on adopting and applying PPN 06/21 and the principles of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol. Data sources used include the UK Greenhouse Gas Reporting Conversion Factors 2023, CarbonCare.org, and the Carbon Footprint Micro Business Footprint Calculator to ensure consistency and accuracy. Our reporting approach includes all relevant operational activities within the United Kingdom as well as the transport of goods into Europe. |

Scope 1: Direct Emissions electroCore UK employed 2 members of staff in 2025, all of whom work from home and do not operate company owned vehicles resulting in a carbon footprint of 0 tCO2e. |
0 |
|
Scope 2: Indirect Emissions During 2025 all staff continued to work from home. For calculation purposes, we assumed that the average workspace is equivalent to a bedroom of approximately 13.5 m², based on data from the LABC Warranty database. Using national domestic consumption benchmarks, an electricity usage benchmark of 25 kWh per m² was applied. This equates to approximately 0.1 tCO2e per employee attributable to home working, resulting in a total working-from-home electricity footprint of 0.2 tCO2e Total: 0.2 |
0.2 |
| Scope 3: Indirect Emissions
Purchased Goods and Services The average carbon footprint of the two products purchased and resold by electroCore UK is approximately 206 kg CO2e per unit. In 2025, sales increased relative to the previous year, resulting in the purchase of 2,800 units. This corresponds to a total estimated footprint of 576.8 tCO2e Capital Goods Not applicable, as electroCore UK does not own equipment, machinery, buildings, facilities, or vehicles. Fuel and Energy related activities not captured in Scope 1 or 2 0 tCO2e Upstream Transportation and Distribution Air freight shipping products from the United States into the United Kingdom generated approximately 9.38 tCO2e. Waste Generated in Operations In 2025, 150 returned units were processed for dismantling, recycling, and disposal, resulting in emissions of approximately 0.2 tCO2e. Employee Home Office As all employees work remotely, the combined home-office carbon footprint is estimated at 1.0 tCO2e. Business Travel Business travel in 2025 remained relatively stable compared to 2024:
Employee Commute All employees work remotely; therefore commuting emissions are 0 tCO2e. Upstream Leased Assets Not applicable as electroCore UK is not involved in the manufacture of any products. Downstream transportation & Distribution electroCore UK continues to utilise UPS for all NHS deliveries. UPS reported emissions of 2.55 kg CO2e per package delivered. In 2025, 1,506 packages were shipped, resulting in an estimated footprint of 3.8 tCO2e. Downstream Leased Assets Not applicable as we have no leased assets. Franchises Not applicable as we have no franchise deals in place. Investments Not applicable as we have no investments in other businesses. |

Emissions Reduction Targets
electroCore UK, Ltd. remains committed to reducing its carbon footprint and strengthening its environmental performance. Our most recent emissions calculations for 2025 demonstrate a reduction in overall emissions, reflecting positive progress in our sustainability efforts.
During the reporting period, our team continued to prioritise the use of virtual meetings wherever possible. In addition, despite increased product sales, operational improvements were implemented to optimise production and shipping processes, resulting in lower emissions than anticipated.
These results highlight our commitment to sustainability and our ability to refine operational practices as we continue to learn and improve. electroCore UK remains dedicated to building on these achievements by strengthening emissions reduction strategies and implementing additional initiatives to support long-term sustainability.
Looking ahead, we reaffirm our objective of achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050 and will continue to develop and implement measures that support this goal. While challenges may arise, the reduction in emissions recorded in 2025 reflects our continued focus on environmental responsibility.
We would also like to acknowledge the support of our partners and stakeholders as we continue working collectively toward a more sustainable future.
Carbon Reduction Projects
Completed Carbon Reduction Initiatives
As we continue to measure and monitor our emissions, electroCore UK remains committed to implementing initiatives designed to improve our carbon performance and accelerate progress towards Net Zero emissions.
Proposed Carbon Reduction Initiatives
- Continue prioritising employee education and awareness through the development of training modules focused on carbon emissions and our Net Zero commitments, ensuring all staff understand and support our sustainability objectives.
- Encourage employees to transition from combustion-engine vehicles to zero-emission electric vehicles for business travel within the United Kingdom, reducing emissions associated with transportation.
- Promote the use of video conferencing to minimise travel requirements for short meetings and encourage rail travel in preference to domestic flights where possible, while selecting lower-emission flight options when air travel is necessary. Also training patients virtually via video call.
- Work collaboratively with suppliers to obtain and report carbon footprint data, improving the accuracy of our emissions reporting and supporting partnerships with suppliers committed to reducing emissions, including logistics providers such as UPS.
- Continue collaborating with our product supplier development teams to reduce the carbon footprint of the products we distribute. Planned initiatives include sourcing renewable components locally and reducing product size to lower transportation and distribution emissions.
- Encourage customers to participate in our device recycling programme to ensure responsible disposal of unused or obsolete electronic devices, supporting circular economy principles and reducing electronic waste.
- Explore carbon offset opportunities in partnership with organisations such as Ecologi in order to offset unavoidable emissions through support of verified carbon reduction projects.
