The NSW Government has committed to achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050, which is aligned to the Paris Climate Agreement to which Australia is a signatory. To meet these targets, organisations need to act to not only improve energy efficiency and increase renewable energy but also reduce emissions through their value chain.
Sustainability Advantage supports members to develop their own clean energy and net zero emissions pathways.
By taking early action, organisations can demonstrate their commitment to responsible business, realise unique opportunities to drive innovation and help solve energy productivity and affordability challenges.
