ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY
ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY
All large businesses now have an ethical and legal requirement to monitor and reduce energy usage, carbon footprint and levels of greenhouse gas emissions, with public oversight via the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) and others. Inevitably, energy and water usage and climate change appear high up the materiality rankings of most large companies.
EECO2 works with our clients to identify and implement energy, water and GHG reduction opportunities. We can guide you through the regulatory requirements, whether you are navigating the UK Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme, the EU Energy Efficiency Directive or seeking to gain ISO 50001 accreditation for energy management.
We can work with you to help define appropriate targets at a corporate level, as well as creating global multi-site strategies to meet and crucially, to accurately measure and report against, reduction targets. EECO2 will also support you in the implementation of these measures at a site level and in helping to ensure that staff understand their role in energy reduction programmes and what they can practically do to contribute.
