About us

Advisory built for Africa's
sustainability transition.

Sante Ellis Ltd was founded to give organisations in Ghana and West Africa the same calibre of climate, sustainability and EHS advisory available in global markets — applied with real understanding of local operating conditions.

Our story

Why Sante Ellis exists

Too much sustainability advisory is either theoretically rigorous and operationally naive, or practically minded but methodologically loose. We built Sante Ellis to close that gap — combining rigorous advisory discipline with the hands-on realism of live industrial EHS operations.

Every engagement is grounded in recognised frameworks — the GHG Protocol, PCAF, GRI, SASB and ISSB — but delivered with an eye for what a resourcing-constrained team can realistically implement, sequenced, and afford.

Mission & vision

Our mission

To equip businesses with the strategy, data and systems needed to decarbonise responsibly and operate safely.

Our vision

A West Africa where sustainability and safety are built into every business decision, not bolted on after the fact.

What we value

Principles that shape
every engagement.

Evidence over assumption

Every recommendation traces back to measured data and a named framework — not intuition.

Built to be implemented

Strategy that ignores resourcing reality is not strategy. We sequence and cost every roadmap.

Independent & direct

Ghanaian-owned, senior-led, and candid — including when the honest answer isn't the easy one.

How we work

Climate strategy and EHS
compliance, under one roof.

Two disciplines that are usually bought separately from separate firms — brought together so your emissions strategy and your safety compliance stay joined up, not siloed.

Climate & Sustainability

Strategy, Data & Disclosure

Decarbonisation strategy, GHG accounting, climate risk and ESG reporting — built on the GHG Protocol, PCAF, GRI, SASB and ISSB frameworks.

Environmental, Health & Safety

Systems, Audits & Culture

EHS management systems, compliance audits, permitting support, and safety culture programmes — grounded in real operational experience, not desk-based policy alone.

Frameworks & standards

What we work to.

Every recommendation is anchored to a named framework or regulation — climate and safety alike — not general best practice.

GHG Protocol

The global standard for corporate Scope 1, 2 & 3 emissions accounting.

PCAF

Financed emissions methodology for banks and financial institutions.
