Our Commitments to Net Zero
At Equans UK & Ireland, we take our own actions on climate change seriously but also recognise our role as an enabler for many of our customers in their own journeys to Net Zero.
Our Commitments to Net Zero
Equans is fully committed to achieving net zero emissions and Equans Group has reaffirmed this by submitting a target to the internationally recognised Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi).
Our commitment recognises the climate change emergency facing the planet and sets us on a path to reach Net Zero ahead of UK Government requirements.
As part of our decarbonisation plan, we have already switched over 30% of our fleet to electric vehicles (EVs), supported by our electric company car list and installing charge points at our employees’ homes. We have also made great progress switching 100% of our leased property, where we control the energy tariffs, to renewable electricity and biogas. We are also rolling out net zero site set ups, replacing diesel generators with mains electricity, HVO and on-site solar.
Our Net Zero Targets
- By 2030 we will achieve Net Zero carbon emissions for our scopes 1 and 2 emissions
- By 2045 we will achieve Net Zero carbon emissions for scope 3 emissions
Supporting our Customers on their Net Zero journeys
Our Net Zero pledge complements our vision to ‘connect, power and protect’ - empowering the businesses and communities we serve to not only fully embrace the energy transition, but also the digital and industrial transitions that are redesigning the way we move, work and live.
By combining our specialist activities, we are empowering our public and private sector partners to make the transition to Net Zero, through the decarbonisation of buildings, heat, industry and transport.
