CleanHQ is a net zero and sustainability advisory based in Nigeria. We help organisations cut emissions, access clean energy, and build real resilience for what is ahead.
Net zero is a business decision, not a box to tick. Our six practice areas are built for real delivery across Africa.
We set science-based targets across three time horizons and build the roadmap to hit them. Practical, phased, and fully SBTi-aligned.
Good sustainability starts with the right governance. We build ISO 14001-compliant systems, run materiality assessments, and put the board accountability in place that makes change last.
Solar PV, battery storage, and clean energy feasibility that actually pencils out. Built for African grid conditions, costs, and timelines.
You cannot manage what you have not measured. We run full Scope 1, 2, and 3 audits, map your reduction pathway, and source verified carbon credits where needed.
Energy transitions affect people as much as infrastructure. We plan for workforce impact, community engagement, and policy alignment so the shift is fair.
We produce TCFD, ISSB, GRI, and CDP-aligned disclosures that hold up to scrutiny from investors, regulators, and auditors.
"Net zero is not a compliance exercise. It is Africa's greatest business transformation opportunity, and Nigeria is at its centre."
Six connected stages, each building on the last. Skipping any of them costs you credibility and delivery.
Establish reliable emissions data and the board-level accountability needed to act on your net zero commitment.
Science-aligned targets across three time horizons, set against your business realities and what is actually achievable.
Cut. Efficiency & operations. Convert. Solar, storage & electrification. Complete. Verified carbon credits for residual emissions.
Investment cases and financing structures that make transition projects viable. PPAs, leasing, blended finance, and measurable business value at every step.
Embed net zero across your organisation. Staff training, supply chain engagement, and clear communication strategies for investors and regulators.
Annual reviews, TCFD and ISSB-aligned reports, and updated action plans that keep your commitment credible year on year.
Baseline, governance & target setting
Efficiency measures & initial investments
Scaling renewables & value-chain engagement
Residual emissions & long-term optimisation
We don't copy-paste global frameworks onto African organisations. Every recommendation reflects the operational, regulatory, and financial reality of doing business here.
Start a Conversation →Africa's energy systems, regulatory environments, and business conditions are their own. Our recommendations reflect that. What works in London or Oslo rarely transfers without significant adjustment.
Every recommendation is measurable and built to hold up under scrutiny from investors, regulators, and auditors. We don't dress things up.
Cutting emissions can create real value. We find where decarbonisation saves money, secures energy supply, and builds competitive advantage.
From baseline measurement through to annual TCFD-aligned reporting, we are built for the full cycle. Not one-off engagements.
From multinationals with net zero commitments to government agencies driving the energy transition. We work at every scale.
Science-based net zero targets, Scope 1–3 carbon accounting, and ESG disclosure aligned with investor expectations.

Impact · SDGsEvery CleanHQ engagement is designed to advance the goals the world has agreed matter most. Our six practice areas map directly to eight of the UN's 17 SDGs.
Three principles shape every CleanHQ engagement, from the first baseline audit to annual progress reporting.
Measurable, evidence-based, and defensible to investors and regulators.
Built for Africa's operational realities. Not borrowed from global templates.
Emissions reduction drives cost savings, energy security & growth.
Ongoing measurement, review, and adaptation. This is a long-term commitment, not a project.
Every client relationship is different. We work in four structured modes, each designed for a specific stage of your sustainability journey — from first audit to long-term partnership.
A structured audit of your emissions baseline, governance gaps, and net zero readiness. The honest starting point before committing to any strategy.
A complete net zero strategy from baseline to published targets. Science-aligned, investor-ready, and built for your actual operational conditions.
Dedicated advisory support across the full net zero journey. We sit alongside your team, track progress, update plans, and handle annual reporting cycles.
Practical, context-specific training for your sustainability team, board, or supply chain — from GHG accounting fundamentals to SDG reporting for executives.
Start with a readiness diagnostic. Know where you stand before deciding where to go.
Whether you need a net zero roadmap, a GHG baseline, or a renewable energy feasibility study, get in touch. We would like to hear from you.
We respond to every enquiry within one business day.
