Offset Your Carbon Footprint
Want to be more sustainable? Cutting your fleet’s carbon footprint doesn’t need to cost the earth. With our Clean Air Partnership, you can offset CO₂ from your business miles.
Real trees, real impact
Cars and light commercial vehicles are heavy contributors to UK carbon emissions. We’ve teamed up with Forest Carbon so our customers can plant trees, balance out their emissions and improve their comitment to sustanabilty.

Carbon Offsetting Projects
Balmedie Farm
Based in Aberdeenshire, this project is a predominantly native broadleaf establishment, with a coniferous element both for timber but also as a shelter belt for the native trees. The project has seen 14,510 trees planted over 6.7 hectares, offsetting 2.304 tonnes of C02.
Back Greenriggs
The project, part of a larger group at Lowther, represents the conversion of arable and grazing land to sustainable forestry. The project offers considerable benefits for wildlife, water quality in local rivers, and downstream flood mitigation.
Keltie Phase 2
The UK is the world’s second largest importer of timber. This project saw the planting of 23,500 trees to meet the UK Government’s call for more timber, and is vital in ensuring a sustainable supply of wood for construction and other uses.
Doddington North
Doddington North is the largest planned new productive forest to be planted in England in the last 25 years. The forest will cover an area of around 350 hectares in Northumberland, with 36,985 trees funded by The Fuel Store and our customers.
International Projects
Most of the projects we support are UK based. Outside of the UK our Clean Air Partnership has supported a range of nature based projects, all certified under the VERRA Verified Carbon Standard. Projects include community agro-forestry in Guatemala and Peru, rainforest protection in Guatemala and Peru, and sustainable timber in Uruguay.

Your Questions Answered
What is Carbon Offsetting?
Carbon offsetting allows people and companies to compensate for their greenhouse gas emissions by funding carbon dioxide savings elsewhere.
This is usually done by investing in projects that either reduce or capture CO2 emissions. This includes things like renewable energy, reforestation, and energy efficiency projects. At The Fuel Store, we focus on reforestation.
How does the Clean Air Partnership work?
Travel and transport has a big impact on the environment.
When you join our Clean Air Partnership, we calculate your carbon footprint using the UK government’s greenhouse gas conversion tables. From this, we know how much carbon your business needs to offset. Then we work with our friends at Forest Carbon to provide carbon credits. These credits go towards projects that reduce CO2 in the atmosphere, allowing you to offset your environmental impact.
Why should I offset the carbon produced by my fleet?
Carbon offsetting is particularly useful for balancing out emissions from activities like travel, which may be difficult to eliminate entirely.
How do you know that the projects are genuine?
Our Clean Air Partnership is delivered in conjunction with an experienced and trustworthy partner. All of their woodland and peatland projects are certified under the Woodland Carbon Code & Peatland Code.
These are UK specific standards that ensure each carbon credit generated represents a removal or avoidance of one tonne of CO2. Under the WCC & PC projects are validated by a third party certification body, following completion of planting (woodlands) or restoration work (peatland), and verified on an ongoing basis.
The WCC & PC also ensure that each project meets the core principles of carbon offsetting – additionality, conservatism, and permanence.
Does the Clean Air Partnership make me carbon neutral?
Carbon offsetting can be part of a strategy to become carbon neutral. It helps to balance out your total carbon emissions with an equivalent amount of carbon savings elsewhere.
However, to be truly sustainable, it is also essential to reduce your emissions wherever possible. When it comes to fleet management, there are a number of ways to be more sustainable, including switching to an EV or mixed fleet, and using software such as Fuel AI to identify trends and improve fleet performance, ensuring regular maintenance.
What are the business benefits of carbon offsetting?
Many companies use carbon offsetting as part of their corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategies, to meet sustainability goals, and to comply with regulations. Offsetting can help businesses mitigate the environmental impact of their operations and enhance their brand reputation.
