How can we implement effective reduction actions?

What are the best practices for achieving these objectives?

To meet global targets, emissions will have to fall by 3 to 7% per year*. It’s a tough target, but a necessary one!

Communicate

COMMUNICATE the results of our GHG assessment to all our teams so that they are on board with the process of reducing emissions.

Involve

INVOLVE management and find internal sponsors responsible for implementing reduction actions.

Engage

ENGAGE our ecosystem (suppliers and customers) and ask about their reduction strategy, in order to prioritise virtuous suppliers.

Raise awareness

INCREASE our teams’ awareness of climate change using our platform to alert and facilitate the implementation of our reduction actions.

These first steps will enable us to maximise our chances of success in implementing reduction actions.

What reduction measures can my company take?

The reduction actions we recommend are selected with:

Ambition

Some actions involve major changes, but they will bring us closer to achieving the global climate targets.

Realism

The action plans are based on practical examples already implemented in other pioneering companies.

Efficiency

Implementing them will have a real impact on our emissions in the short and long term.

Next steps

How can we build our reduction trajectory?

The four key stages in defining and following our trajectory.

Refine our greenhouse gas emissions assessment

The majority of 2024 data is assessed using annual expenditure. Greenly recommends that we regularly improve the accuracy of our greenhouse gas assessment by adding more activity based data. We will be able to quantify and monitor our reductions with precise targets in km, kg, kWh, etc.

Prioritize our actions

Calculate our reduction potential

Monitor our results

Targets

Build Our Carbon Reduction Trajectory

Three key steps to build our trajectory

Prioritize our actions
Calculate our reduction potential
Optimize our trajectory

1. Bring together the stakeholders in our climate strategy

2. Place the action suggestions from the Greenly report on the matrix after identifying our constraints

3. Keep all feasible actions and prioritize those with the greatest impact

Since 2021, we have achieved the following:

Our60+ fleet now consist of Euro6, Hybrid, and electric modern vehicles

We save20 million litres of drinking water a year through the HydrosphereTM process

We’ve installedcharging points at our office and logistics hub to serve our fleet

RIBA London Award 2022, Lambeth Palace Library shows our efforts for zero carbon usage

We use reusable systems such asVictaulic to reduce waste and allow for future expansion

Our logistics staffconsolidate materials off site to reduce waste on our projects

We have introduced anelectric vehicle scheme for staff to reduce our carbon footprint

We utilise3D modelling techniques to ease services co-ordination and reduce waste

Ourcarbon emissions per worker are well below the industry average

Take a moment to explore our sustainability strategy, take a deeper dive into our latest initiatives, and see how we’re setting new benchmarks for success.

Together, let’s build a world where responsibility and innovation go hand in hand.
