National Broadband Ireland

National Broadband Ireland is delivering high speed broadband infrastructure across rural Ireland. Operating a 47 vehicle fleet across remote regions, sustainability and operational continuity are critical to meeting national rollout targets and CSRD reporting requirements.

WHAT WE DO

The challenge

With 2025 Scope 1 CSRD targets approaching, National Broadband Ireland faced a significant emissions challenge.

Their fleet operates primarily in rural Ireland, where electric vehicle infrastructure was not yet viable for a full transition. Moving to EV would have disrupted operations and slowed deployment.

They needed a practical, immediate solution to reduce Scope 1 emissions without compromising fleet performance or rollout timelines.

“We needed a realistic solution. Electrification was not feasible for our fleet footprint at the time, but our emissions targets were non negotiable.”

– Venezia Zandrelli, Sustainability Manager, National Broadband Ireland

The solution

NBI transitioned their fleet to HVO fuel and used Transpoco’s Fuel Module to monitor usage and identify missed HVO opportunities at the pump.

By combining fuel transaction data with emissions reporting tools, they were able to:

• Track HVO adoption across the fleet
• Identify when standard diesel was used instead of HVO
• Measure real CO2 savings per vehicle
• Generate accurate Scope 1 reporting data

Transpoco’s reporting functionality provided the visibility needed to manage the transition effectively and ensure sustainability targets were met.

“We hit our Scope 1 emissions because of HVO. We couldn’t have implemented this without Transpoco’s HVO reporting functionality.”

– Venezia Zandrelli, Sustainability Manager, National Broadband Ireland

The results

Within just seven months, NBI achieved measurable impact:

• 22 tonnes of CO2 saved
• 0.5 tonnes reduction per vehicle
• Scope 1 emissions target achieved

Most importantly, they implemented a lower carbon fuel strategy without disrupting operations or waiting for infrastructure to catch up.

HVO provided an immediate pathway to emissions reduction, while Transpoco ensured the transition was measurable, reportable and aligned with CSRD requirements.

Looking ahead

As sustainability regulations continue to evolve, NBI now has a scalable reporting framework in place to track fuel strategy performance and support future compliance requirements.

For organisations facing similar Scope 1 challenges, HVO reporting offers a practical and immediate solution.

“Prior to using Transpoco, we were with another company  for a number of years. We moved because of a  combination of issues with the trackers and the support just wasn’t there. The trackers weren’t very reliable. We were constantly chasing up trackers that weren’t working”
